My tone is consistent because the people I'm talking to are fucking stupid and repeat the same lies over and over again. This is from your previous post: > In 2022, over $240 billion was invested in more than 680 global hydrogen pro

For underground salt domes and caverns? Leaks and damaged vessels are a non-issue. Salt caverns are everywhere. In fact this is how we store natural gas today. And the capacity is truly insane. It is on the order of PWhs: https:/&#x

You do realize that hydrogen storage is also already known? The boring method of storing hydrogen in underground salt domes and caverns is well understood. This is all way more practical than crisscrossing the oceans with HVDC lines. And it

You need look into the mirror here. Why are you like this? Do you understand what exponent growth even is? At 50% YOY growth, it will catch up to everything else in a handful of years. And this is your source, not mine. You are basicall

A global power grid is a far greater fantasy than building hydrogen storage, just FYI.

You’re using a gish gallop style list of random claims. There is not one science article that pushes back on every one of your points. The main thing to note is that fuel cell cars already exist . They already are cars that can be bought n

Your rhetoric is utterly non-sincere. The idea that something needs to be greater than $100B, something very few things are, to be significant is utter bullshit. Not even getting into the part about 50% YOY growth.

I'm curious as to how you can read an article describing tens of billions of dollars of investments that have reached the final investment stage, and that it is growing 50% YOY, and then conclude that this is the same level of success

You can just google it. Or bing it or whatever, since Google sucks these days. It's happening everywhere now. Like I said, this is akin to someone demanding proof that there's war in Ukraine right now.

The "proposal" is simply pointing out that those claims are simply false. Hydrogen storage is a solved problem. BEV fanatics are just lying about it. In reality, the whole thing is a disruptive technology to BEVs since it fundamen

Again, you are simply unaware of what is happening. It is very similar to how anti-solar analysts simply failed to recognize the widespread deployment of PV panels around a decade ago.

You can buy this right now: https://www.h2networks.com.au/lavo-hydrogen-battery/ But of course, given the enormous anti-hydrogen campaign of the last decade, everything is currently at an immature level.

It's already "too late" for any such solution. We are already at the point where geoengineering is necessary. But of course, environmentalists oppose that too.

This problem can be solved by making hydrogen. So there is a way to power society with renewables if you are willing accept the need for baseload power. Of course, renewable energy fanatics do not accept this fact, and often are ideological

And the vast majority of electricity is made from fossil fuels too. And that figure was far higher when BEVs got started. This is simply a lazy troll argument, and literally a repeat of old anti-BEV arguments.

The solution is to switch to hydrogen cars and avoid all resource intensive materials. Not to mention that LFP comes with major compromises and most US Teslas do not use them.
