An excellent piece calculating what would really be needed , and the costs, for the thermodynamic crime called hydrogen.

Too many just hand-wave away the costs and problems of using hydrogen for “climate” remediation.

Uncovered in your piece is that it causes steel embrittlement, leaks like crazy (about 1% for each joint on connection) burns dangerously invisible, and cannot be transported in existing natural gas pipelines.

There’s a reason dozens of hydrogen outfits have gone bankrupt or shuttered in the last year.

And about 130 on a bankruptcy death watchlist.

Hydrogen will always be the next great thing. As it has been for a century.
