There is more to a national power system than EROEI. If hydrogen is more versatile and useful it will have advantages even if it's EROEI is lower - lets say powering remote places or powering equipment for which battery powered is not an option, but fuel cells are.
- AtlasBarfed 7y agoHydrogen is difficult to transport: it leaks out of everything, it's a gas that needs to be liquified or compressed, and it is flammable. I get that grid lines don't appear out of thin air, especially in seas/oceans. Too bad microwave transmission cooks wildlife and humans.
