I don't understand why the leak rate from H2 pipes wouldn't be as bad as CH4. In fact, shipping hydrogen is generally much harder, since it requires such deeply cryogenic temperatures to stay liquid, unlike liquid natural gas which can be accomplished with just pressure.
- credit_guy 5y agoH2 is not a greenhouse gas. The leak of H2 does not contribute to global warming.
- rrrrrrrrrrrryan 5y agoIf you burn a greenhouse gas to create H2, and then X% of the H2 goes to waste through leakage, it's possible this process may contribute more to global warming than just transporting and burning the greenhouse gas itself, depending on X. If X is very large, you could argue that the leak of H2 does contribute to global warming.
