I wonder if hydrogen is practical to transport in large quantities. My guess is no. Your idea of methane, if it could be done efficiently, seems more likely.

- peterashford 8y agoI saw that very recently an Australian company had worked out a way of transporting hydrogen in large quantities by converting it into something else which I conveniently can't remember.
- spangry 8y agoIt was the CSIRO converting hydrogen to ammonia for transport, and then back to hydrogen again: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-08-08/hydrogen-fuel-breakthrough-csiro-game-changer-export-potential/10082514 http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-08-08/hydrogen-fuel-breakthr...
- rapnie 8y agoAmmonia might be a better way. Easy to produce, store and transport and contains higher hydrogen density than compressed hydrogen (I think). http://www.ammoniaenergy.org/ http://www.ammoniaenergy.org/
- samatman 8y agoThe biosphere can't handle ammonia accidents at anything resembling the scale of crude oil and natural gas accidents. Methane is the better choice.
