I am not so sure they will solve our problems Flecc, I think one of our big problems is the deemed prerequisite for a mobile fuel source, and the fuel cell just replaces the fuel tank in this. As I understand it, making fuel cells is not at all cheap, and then there is the manufacture, recycling of empty cells, transportation, distribution.......all things we should be moving away from.
With a battery, the energy production is taken away from the vehicle, and can be controlled by a central source that can invest (if they have the will) in cleaner technologies for electricity production in the first instance.
