2/ hydrogen is a garbage fuel, and the fact that greens are in love with it is proof that greens don't know science hydrogen: - leaks through EVERYTHING like water through a sieve - burns with a colorless flame, making it very dangerous - is bulky AF meaning that tanks are huge

4/ Nuclear is a great power source, but if you have unlimited electric from nuclear, you should use that to create a hydrocarbon from atmospheric CO2. Hydrocarbons are much better energy storage fuels than raw hydrogen.https://twitter.com/alexriesart/status/1426532898446876672 …

4/ Hydrogen has one thing going for it: it has high energy density PER MASS, so if you're trying to finesse the rocket equation (where at t=0 you're lifting all of the fuel for t=1...n, and at t=1 you're lifting all the fuel for t=2..n, etc.), it's a win.

5/ yeah, "solar to hydrocarbon" (i.e. growing corn) certainly works. But I was specifically going down the nuclear route, bc you get much higher energy generation per acre that way. A society that grows corn for all energy uses is a sad one, IMO. https://twitter.com/ITBeHa/status/1426533874386055171 …

The birrin use nuclear, solar, wind etc to crack water.

Or hydrogen from cracking hydrocarbons.

Yeah, it’s my understanding that where hydrogen is actually required in chemical/industrial processes, steam-methane reforming is used unless there are absolutely no natural gas sources available.

You're missing one of the best points about H2 (NH3, really): it makes the BEV-boosters complain about its [no, not kidding] "carbon [CO2] footprint" and how it's just "fossil fuels." (Also, using wind turbines to make NH3 would remove those grid-disrupters from the grid.)

I got a hydrogen cell in my truck I made.
