Is there any chemical process which could produce methane from CO2 and water instead? Hydrogen is hard to store.

Hydrogen is hard to store.
- Nasrudith 7y agoI recall hearing about navy peojwvrs to use reactor power and sea water to produce diesel for easier logistics. Less per Carbon density but a bit safer and easier to work with.

- hannob 7y agoThere kinda is, it's a two-step process: First you generate hydrogen and then methane out of hydrogen and CO2. Problem is: Turning electricity into Hydrogen is inefficient, turning it into Methane is extra inefficient.
