I was pondering given the rise in natural gas prices globally, how much effort would be involved for some uses to use hydrogen instead.
Certainly be good use of the off-peak spare capacity type issues with electricity production. Cost wise compared to a therm of natural gas (a therm of natural gas is about 2kg's) then hydrogen starts to become viable on price alone. Now if your able to tap excess electricity production to produce that hydrogen, then you start to become more competitive as an alternative.
