GH Power takes aluminum and water and with an exothermic reactor turns them into hydrogen and alumina, for much lower cost than electrolyzing water. They also hype Plug, Bloom, Ballard, Fuel Cell (FCEL), and others – investor talk. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/reactor-design-gamechanger-green-hydrogen-010100528.html

2023-11-23 H2 Advocates/ICCT Don’t Understand PPAs, RECs, Wholesale, Retail Electricity
First, the Prime Directive: The release of GHGs – greenhouse gases – by humans into the atmosphere must be stopped. Burning fossil fuels for industry and transportation make up a major part of those GHGs. Fossil fuels must be replaced by fuels that add no GHGs to the atmosphere. Hydrogen is one choice. I want

2023-11-17 UAE – World’s Largest Single-site Solar Farm
2 gigawatts divided by 4,000,000 panels equals 500 watts per panel. They must be large solar panels. They also talk about “clean coal” and other fossil fuels. This is greenwashing if they don’t give up fossil fuels. Quote: “”The 2-gigawatt (GW) solar farm is 22 miles (35 km) from Abu Dhabi and features almost 4

2023-11-15 HYDROGEN – You Wouldn’t Be Alive Without It!
I constantly see the armchair BEV (battery electric vehicle) ‘experts’ badmouth hydrogen FCEVs. The hydrogen is 3X less efficient than BEVs, they claim. But the ICEVs (internal combustion engine vehicles) they’re now driving are less efficient than the hydrogen FCEVs! So why are these hypocrites complaining? Hydrogen has been *safely* generated, stored and transported in

2023-11-07 Solar Floatovoltaics In The Ocean
Matt Undecided talks about solar PV floating on the ocean – it’s already being developed and scaled up in some countries. The big benefits are the solar panels stay cooler so they gain 4 to 7% in efficiency. And the panels reduce evaporation, saving water. And no land is needed or used. YouTube video.
2023-11-01 V2G Vehicle To Grid – Engineering With Rosie Australia
Things are different in Australia, but eventually the V2G will become common in America soon. Also VPP – virtual power plant, which combines many residential solar storage systems into a virtual power plant. This is being done right now in California. What is really heartbreaking is there has been so much badmouthing about EVs –
