Local lawmakers urge changes to proposed federal hydrogen energy rules

1. Hydrogen is nothing but a battery.

You take one source of energy and turn it in to another source of energy with a loss at every stage.

Be it splitting water by any means, or splitting nat gas, your just changing the storage type. Problem is there is a 20% loss at every conversion, with no real change in emissions, except the losses mean more emissions for a given amount of work.

If you want to use solar to make hydrogen from water, just use the solar to charge a battery and skip the huge losses.
