  • We already transport electricity and then it is just wasted because we don’t need that much of it during peak green energy generation. You would use this otherwise wasted energy and store it in hydrogen.

    You have no real argument here so you’re bringing in useless semantics. We’re already transporting and storing hydrogen in liquid form without any issues.

    You have to realize just how idiotic the idea of a battery trailer is. Current, garbage batteries barely able to achieve 250 mi of range are 25% of car’s weight.

    It doesn’t matter how inefficient hydrogen is to produce because we’d be using energy that is currently just wasted.


  • Water is non issue since it doesn’t have to be too close to generators. We kinda figured out how to transfer electricity where we need it.

    Transporting it is a small issue but we’re already transporting a lot of liquid gasses and other flammable stuff like gasoline.

    If nothing else it could be used by millions of semis for which current battery tech is absolutely fucking useless and likely will remain that way for decades.

    But really if we didn’t jump on completely wrong tech years ago and just switched to hydrogen instead of batteries, we would have cars with zero emissions, zero range issues and zero charging problems a decade ago.
