ICEVs will outlast BEVs. Just like it did 100 years ago.

This reminds me of Moore's Second Law, namely that the cost of maintaining Moore's Law will itself follow an exponential growth curve. You figure there will come a date where any a…

Energy storage based on hydrogen can easily scale up to power homes and industry during the winter: https://www.pv-magazine.com/2020/06/16/hydrogen-storage-in-s... We have petawatt…

Exactly! You went so far up your own asshole in denying the existence of hydrogen combustion in industrial use that you even forgot about steam turbines. The whole point was showin…

Gas turbines that can run at 90% hydrogen and have existed for decades, still doesn't count as "existing" for you. And you still are pretending that steam power plants running on h…

And there's not a single grid that's green, since they all produce CO₂. Even zero emissions grids like wind and solar still produce CO₂ during manufacturing. And remember just how …

Grids are not 100% green. So by your definition they're not green either.

Imagine electric cars were held to that standard. There would be no carbon neutral products of any kind. Yes, keep fucking that chicken.

Even more moving of the goalposts... Now it's every single gas turbine out there needs to be upgradable to 100% hydrogen, and "peak" blends don't count. Keep fucking that chicken. …

So even a 90% hydrogen concentration burning, existing gas turbine with zero modifications still doesn't count. I see the goalposts move even further... Yeah, keep shoving your hea…

So how else we're suppose to interpret this statement: "No, hydrogen rapidly corrodes any metals that it comes into contact with. If they are interchangeable, expect drastically sm…

You pretty much did say that anything above 30% concentration would destroy any gas turbine, nevermind this whole goalpost moving argument of "current gas turbine already in existe…

You do realize that has more to do with the availability of hydrogen and that they only have to hit their emissions target by 2050? If you have done any kind of digging at all you …

Then repurpose old coal plants for the same reason. None of this needs to be hard. This whole debate started when you were caught making ignorant statements regarding basic chemist…

Are you familiar with the term "moving the goalposts"?

Comment #26599747
So now you're arguing that anything less than ~60% efficiency is unacceptable? Even for emergency backup or long-term power storage reasons? You're at multiple layers of denial at …

In addition to what I said in the other post regarding gas turbines, you also don't need a gas turbine to generate power. As long as you can boil water the rest follows logically. …

A claim which simply isn't true. Only certain alloys have a problem with hydrogen. We've been using hydrogen in industry for decades and most of this problem has been solved.

Super-capacity is going to be a major driver for the build-out of water electrolysis for the production of hydrogen. You can turn what will basically be a waste product into a high…
