You ever seen a gas station with enough land to have a huge solar farm attached to it? That's not the norm...

- cjensen 5y agoA think you may have missed the part where I wrote "connection to the grid." My point is create an energy storage station, all you need is water and grid power. No pipelines needed. This hypothetical power storage site would generate hydrogen during the daytime from surplus grid solar, then burn the hydrogen at night delivering the power back to the grid. To be clear, I'm not necessarily talking about a solution for homeowners. An energy storage facility could cheerfully be as large Diablo Canyon Power Station. It just depends on the efficiencies of everything from the water-splitting process, storage solution, grid losses, and grid capacity.
