We'll be making hydrogen from saltwater with sunlight and wind energy in ~15 years or less. There's a race to own these industries right now.

- smt88 4y agoThe same sunlight and wind energy could be used directly as electricity in homes and EV batteries. There is a significant cost to storing the energy as hydrogen, and there's no benefit.
- Dylan16807 4y agoInstalling battery banks to last longer and longer has an increasing cost, so you start to run out of batteries to fill during high production times. At a certain point hydrogen should get cheaper per watt to soak up production.
- gonzo41 4y agoFor countries that import LNG as source of power now, there's a future in shipping h2 as ammonia and converting it to hydrogen on the other end. Places with lots and sun, lots of ocean and existing LNG infrastructure are in a good place to assist in this transformation.
