“Where does oil come from? It doesn't just get scooped up and put into buckets.
Same with hydrogen.
Main difference is that hydrogen is the most plentiful element on the planet”

The stupid, it hurts! Yeah, there's plenty of hydrogen on earth and it is in the form of, wait for it, water. It takes energy to break apart the hydrogen from the oxygen in water. That is like claiming CO2 is energy because the oxygen in it will burn if only we could sprig the oxygen from the carbon.

do you have any comprehension how much energy is required to drill and pump oil, transport it, refine it into gasoline, then transport that to the local gas stations around the nation?

of course not.

it’s quite a bit more than a small solar panel producing 1kg of hydrogen per day... collected into a home tank... and then used in your car, which has a 6kg / 400mi tank.

but hey, thanks for your 9th grade assessment of the situation.

you keep shilling.

i’ll go with hydrogen combustion engines and stay off grid.
