#5Spoiler alert, this is the fate of all Hydrogen strategies not based on massive investment into nuclear.
But since when did physics ever stop anybody from believing in fairy tales?

#6Seems like the “sunk cost fallacy” Wikipedia page might need an update.
The choice to pursue hydrogen-fuelled combined heat and power is particularly mystifying, given that Japanese companies are market leaders in heat pumps. Tokyo’S climate is also ideally suited for heat pumps, given the need for air conditioning in summer and the fact they’ll heat just fine in the coldest conditions greater Tokyo ever experiences.

I suspect one man’s “sunk cost fallacy” is another man’s “attempt at regulatory capture with patents in their back pocket”.

Thanks, in this day and age it's so weird to post an online article, and mention the source title without linking to it when it's also an online publication.

This is nearly a ludicrous leap of logic with an ad hominem attack only slightly disguised.
