The document discusses a scenario where political will accelerates a dramatic shift in the global energy mix away from petroleum towards hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. This would require massive investments in hydrogen production infrastructure and fuel cell technology to bring costs down and make the scenario viable. The biggest risks and barriers are the ability to reduce fuel cell and hydrogen costs at scale, as well as generating sufficient political will through public-private cooperation and incentives on the scale of other major programs.
