“The pipeline under the Mediterranean Sea will carry green hydrogen, made from water via electrolysis using renewable energy.”
this is a pipe dream ... electrolysis is a very inefficient way to make hydrogen, and anybody can do it ... heck i did it in high school chemistry class ... so why is a pipeline needed? ... just make your own hydrogen right on the spot anywhere there is abundant water and “renewable” electricity ...
AND hydrogen is EXTREMELY reactive and EXTREMELY difficult to prevent from leaking since atomic hydrogen is EXTREMELY tiny ...
EXTREME reactivity and EXTREME difficulty in preventing leaks is clearly a disaster in the making ... assuming these fools ever manage to build any part of their hydrogen pipeline, i predict numerous and massive explosions in the future ...
Hydrogen is a poor storage medium, agreed. The rational seems to be that Portugal and Spain have periods when “renewable” energy generation exceeds demand. Hydrogen provides a means to store a recoverable fraction of that temporary local surplus.
A pipeline gets funding from American taxpayers. Just like he fusion hype news from a couple of weeks ago that had the same results as the last one.
We are stupidly following people who lie to us constantly… and who openly state we should lose our children or be left to die.
They are serious and we are not.
