RE:RE:The Acceleware/Aurora Hydrogen SolutionI have been reading up on hydrogen the pros and cons and while theoretically there are hydrogen fuel cells already in use for vehicles it is not as efficient as electric and doesnt have the infrastructure in place and will likely not as not even electric at this point has sufficient charging stations along the road ways. There will need to be more things for hydrogen to be used in conjunction with electric or for some sort of process where it is more constructive and beneficial to have which i will need to do more research on.
As far as companies in this space the biggest challenge is having the supply close enough to harness in any real amounts as on a grid basis. I have been looking at charbon Pwwr and an affiliate that is operating in this space to power energy grids. The most common solution is to have a modular set up of storage junctures which were converted from old power sources that would interconnect and feed a main power source or grid. This space is really still in its infancy despite companies like ballard and first hydrogen and other juniors like dynacert and has remained and proven to be a very challenging one with limited noticeable gains mostly taken a back seat to electric and solar. This is not to say that hydrogen is not viable or not happening but not nearly on the same scale as electric and hopefully people understand this and its limitations when compared to a sector which got the bigger backing and by far is further along. I never see one source of energy overtaking or fully replacing another as solar combined with electricity is just way more entrenched and remain so. When the pereon from Aurora gave an interview he did acknowledge that there are lots of challenges with hydrogen and it is still as mentiinef in the infancy stages. I personally never bet big on this source when i have always been solar and electrification and ever since i first gambled on hydrogen fuel cells in early 2000 on a company called palcan that was making hydrogen powered bikes. Hydrogen is not easy to get to as it is within the Earths crust the process of refining storing and transporting have continued to be a challenge.
In regards to ev vs hydrogen from my recollection the reason why it is less efficient cell wise is the process takes more energy to convert the hydrogen within thr cell to get it going than it does for electricity. I read a site and they actually tell how much so and that this differential is not likely goung to be overcome and compensated. Hydrogen on a smaller scale vehicle basis is viable and may have the advantage of having stored cell capacity without needing to plug and charge and requiring for waiting time when one measured cell or tank gives the duration as is tested for and in that case if people carry extra tanks and if traveling away from otherwise where a car may need charging and there are no stations unless you have a hybrid you are sol not so with the canisters of hydrogen so in this way there are ways it is viable and all sources have their strengths and limitations so hydrogen for vehicles makes sense along these lines but i see far fewer of them than the evs.
As far as generating power as a grid i dont know especially with the paralysis process and why. I am used to the water and steam power turning turbines and then converting to electricity feeding the grid how hydrogen factors into all this i will need to read more about it. I see hydrogen overall as the weaker source when lookinh at electrification and dont put huge bets on this sector my preference is always electrification although those in hydrogen will always try to make a point otherwise to convince people. Having said that giving axe can potentially be involved in numerous energy processes it only helps continue to expand the revenue stream so this is great on this point as well as what people are saying potash as well as woodchips and biofuels both of which i am not so well versed in. It is because i dealt with hydrigen solar and electrification via solar i have some knoedge and i will tell you with certainty electrification will remain the bigger power source vs hydrogen. Nothing in where hydrogen is at and scientifically speaking convinces me otherwise.
