Curious about Hydrogen Advancements?...

9. No, reducing fossil fuel use and reducing greenhouse gas emissions is not a "false argument"

I'm for reducing fossil fuel use anyway I can.

The reality of the situation is that there isn't enough wind and solar and nuclear, and there won't be for a long time. Yes, we should build those as fast as possible, but nuclear has a long long lead time, the bubbly boo about the little modular reactors is still a long way off from producing much of anything, and the intermittency problem keeps solar and wind limited because battery storage is way expensive and 4 hour batteries don't cut it.

Plan A - only produce hydrogen from green sources,

Plan B - produce hydrogen from green sources AND *IF* fossil-fueled or partially fossil-fueled hydrogen production (e.g. electricity from the utility grid) and end use efficiency reduces fossil fuel use (compared to what we're doing now), then do that too, until we reach the nirvana where all energy comes from wind, solar and nuclear which is a long way off.

I'm a Plan B person myself.
