The question is, which is going to be better. It seems the Hydrogen will get more autonomy, even the Toyota is going to sell in 2015 a Hydrogen car (see picture) with 136HP and 500km of autonomy (on a single fillup). Regarding Electric vehicle, the idea it seem will be covering small cars for cities, but on both cases, China has not a great implementation of the electric charging or hydrogen fuelling stations.
Other countries like Norway, Tesla and Nissan are in a full competition for being the top selling monthly car (just as information: Norway Top sales: Tesla Model S in September and Nissan LEAF in October).

Of course, it will be necessary to make and study in detail about what is it happening in Norway for achieving this EV implementation, but I think China will have other situation.
China has a very big cities where the implementation of the EV needs a great investment for the electric charging, and at the same time with the hydrogen fuelling stations for Fuel Cells Vehicles.
Would be in China the solution of electric stations which operates OFF GRID?, it could be a solution for implementing PV plants with storage systems which charge during the day (generations hours) and load the electric vehicles during night with no Grid integration, and then, saving the cost of investment the complete electric infrastucture and also, the inconvenience of the high level of harmonics whichs is generation electric stations, and of course, the implementation for getting a solution for this harmonics.
On the other hand, we will see a future where PV or wind farms in country areas generates the electricity for electric charging and for producing hydrogen to supply to the fuelling stations?
