Agreed though it is exciting to see the cost drops - but it's important to compare like for like wrt to intermittency.
- spenrose 7y agoThat's the price range for the Hawaii projects. The cost for the (much larger) Eland and Gemini projects is $35 MWh (previous and [4], respectively). WRT intermittency, the point of this conversation is that hydrogen generation is a solution: over-provision and generate combustible hydrogen (or ammonia, etc) that can be used later and / or where electricity performs poorly: long haul transport and high-temperature industrial processes.

- Mirioron 7y agoIsn't hydrogen one of the hardest things to transport?
