Default Audi makes methane-like fuel from electricity and CO2

Way cool:

This E-Fuel Works Just Like Gasoline But Is Entirely Carbon Neutral

Now if they could figure out how to make ethanol or similar, then when solar cells become economical then they could be used to make alcohol which can be trucked around like gasoline.

Hydrogen isn't exactly plentiful, on this planet anyways. As always, there's no free lunch.
