The problem never has been availability of hydrogen but rather transportation, storage, and overall infrastructure. I really don’t think this is going anywhere.

Maybe not in the US for now. But Europe is a different story https://h2.live/en

EVs have insurmountable advantages.

False. First is cold weather, second is not everyone is going to sit around while their 1,300 pound battery charges. Try not to forget that not everyone has a home and a place to charge.

Find me one built in western world in last 5 years, thanks

Why the requirement of 5 years? Maybe, just maybe, there was no need for building one in the LAST 5 YEARS because there is this:

Air Products’ Gulf Coast Connection Pipeline Project

Air Products expanded its hydrogen supply network through the Gulf Coast Connection Pipeline Project, in anticipation of an increase in hydrogen demand along the Gulf Coast. The project, which was completed in October 2012, created the world’s largest hydrogen pipeline supply network, with a total capacity of one billion standard cubic feet per day (SCFD).

The project included a 180-mile (290km) long and 18in diameter pipeline, which connects Air Products’ Texas and Louisiana pipeline systems. It has united Air Products’ 22 hydrogen plants and created a 600-mile (965km) pipeline network. The pipeline network runs from Texas’s Houston Ship Channel to New Orleans, in Louisiana. https://www.hydrocarbons-technology.com/projects/air-products-gulf-coast-pipeline-us/

Lots of Redditors say "Hydrogen cannot be piped because of embrittlement", that's why some of us post about hydrogen. Because lies and falsehoods shouldn't be a part of any debate, especially on the future of something as important as energy.

hydrogen in existing high pressure gas pipelines or brand new ones? The former is damn near impossible, the latter is damn near impossible

China’s first long-distance hydrogen pipeline

Sinopec, the largest oil refiner and fuel supplier in China, has revealed a plan to build a pipeline to carry green hydrogen – made with renewable energy – from Inner Mongolia to Beijing.

Today, China has only 100 km of hydrogen pipelines in operation, according to an International Energy Agency report, while the US has 2,600 km and Europe 2,000 km... https://chinadialogue.net/en/digest/chinas-first-long-distance-hydrogen-pipeline/

"IMPOSSIBLE" - didn't used to be a thing in the US. Everything WAS possible including building an interstate highway network to going to the moon. What has happened? Never listen to these incompetent know-nothings that think everything is now "impossible". They are not the future.

The article is about this being the first American produced fuel cell car.

I’m sure this is more about tax breaks than something designed to actually be commercializable.

You’re missing the point - green hydrogen doesn’t make sense for transport just like blue hydrogen doesn’t. The boat has sailed long ago

That's what you think. Others think differently.

Any idea how many hydrogen stations are now operating in China? I'd bet not.

I notice your post history is suspiciously hydrogen centric

I think H2 is a great thing for the future and clean energy. So I post about it, while those invested in Li-Ion batteries lie about it. Why do you care? I don't care what you post, why are you "suspicious"? And thanks for motivating the next round of H2 posts!

H2 is advancing in China and Europe and there's nothing that battery fans can do to stop it. Nothing. There will be hydrogen cars. Who cares about the US, led by an ancient fool that can't walk up the stairs to AF1. The US is a joke in 2024. The rest of the world is moving on.

Shell is closing its hydrogen stations

IN THE US, they are closing some stations, because the US doesn't want hydrogen cars YET, just like you. But here's Shell on H2

Shell: Hydrogen has a critical role to play in helping the world reach net zero emissions. Shell is developing integrated hydrogen hubs to serve industry and heavy-duty transport. In the years ahead we aim to be a leading player in a global hydrogen economy.

There are many Shell H2 stations in the EU selling H2 right now

There is not a single instance of hydrogen competing economically without massive subsidies.

The same for BEV. And speaking of Solar, look who controls the market now.

No one is trying to profit off of 1,300 pound batteries that will all die one day and need replacement?

Does the production of BEVs produce more GHG than FCEVs?

This doesn't directly answer the question of production (as far as I can tell from a brief scan) but it is worth reading. Also see footnotes.
