So find some specs for a continuous duty motor (off the shelf) and btw 3ph motors are lighter than single phase. The point is that a mere 100 hp is 1100 lb

Actually I've been an idiot. There is a lot easier way to disprove this catalytic ethanol to H2 horse sh!t. That is: look at the bond energies ethanol CH₃CH₂OH has 5 C-H bonds, one C-C bond, one C-O bond and one O-H bond this adds up to 5*343 + 347 + 356 + 464 kcal per mole to dissociate it. 2882kcal/mole Now you get back 3 H-H and 1/2 O-O and say one C-C as a yield 3*435 + 1/2*147 + 347 = 1726 kcal /mole. I'm assuming the C-C is a wash. You have to put in 2882 - 1726 kcal/mole. You need to find 1156 kCal per mole to run this reaction. First law of thermodynamics violation otherwise known as perpetual motion of the first kind. All the catalysts in the world don't change this.

When natural gas is passed through the hydrogen catalyst in your gas line to draw off the hydrogen the catalyst gets warm. Wouldn't hydrogen production be exothermic and wouldn't that explain why the catalyst is carried on a high-temperature substrate such as alumina or ceramic?
