The development of technologies that enable wind turbines to produce hydrogen gas directly, rather than electricity, is a promising step toward addressing the weather-dependent nature of wind power. Hydrogen storage allows for the utilization of wind energy even when the wind isn't blowing, making the energy supply more predictable and reliable. This innovation can contribute significantly to the green transition and the reduction of fossil fuel dependency.

Safety being a challenge with hydrogen is the no-brain'er first thought everyone gets, when considering the Hindenburg of fuels....but that is quickly dispelled, when considering how long we've been working with hydrogen now.

Safe hydrogen is easy! It just takes massively heavy and thick tanks! From there we've worked to maintain the same safety and capacity, with increasingly lighter and cheaper tanks.

You can see how the US Dept. of Energy's older FreedomCar initiative from 2007'ish, set goals to improve onboard hydrogen storage for light vehicles. It set vehicle hydrogen tank goals to gradually reduce the weight of the system, increase the density of storage, reduce the cost, and reduce refueling time.

UncleWillard56 · 2023-08-29T17:11:57+00:00

Peter Zeihan brought up a very good point about infrastructure with regard to hydrogen. Are we even close to being able to support these vehicles. Not just from a fueling perspective, but from a safety perspective. I can only imagine what a car accident with hydrogen tanks would be like. Is he wrong?

To convert hydrogen back to electricity you need some metal that does not breakdown from electricity.

That is usually an expensive noble metal, like palladium or platinum.

Any guess as to how much platinum is in every single catalytic converter attached to every single new car made in the world?
