“The Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously on Wednesday to convert a natural gas power plant to a new hydrogen system that critics say may not provide enough power and could cause more environmental damage. “

idiots ... where do they think hydrogen comes from ... either by cracking natural gas, or burning NG to make electricity to crack H2O via hydrolysis ... thus, massive net loss of energy and massive net gain of CO2 ...

Isn’t the by product of using hydrogen fuel water vapor? Water vapor is the NUMBER 1 greenhouse gas!

Your comment reminds me so much of Ayn Rand’s, Anthem.

What they really need is Dihydrogen Oxide. That stuff is unobtainium in CA.
Rumor has it you can buy it in Tijuana!

Ayn Rand had these “experts” nailed—they are witch doctors.

More people who don’t understand basic chemistry.

Yeah, Hydrogen, as an energy source puts just about every alternative to shame from comparison of fuel mass (i.e., weight) to energy produced. A pound of hydrogen will produce =much= more energy than a pound of gasoline. Hydrogen is also quite plentiful (see the Pacific Ocean). The issue is that hydrogen binds tightly to almost any element with open valences. Therefore, you have to expend energy to get H2.Then you have to store the resultant product as a gas, liquid or something you can use a catalyst or other reducing agent with to liberate the H2.

Bottom line, Unless you are using solar to crack water directly, in place, it’s gonna cost more than it is worth from a total energ perspective.
