Many living in climate denial have put their faith in hydrogen, to avoid the bog obvious answer right in front of them, of solar and wind. (Actually what motivates them is that they just don’t want to agree with the people who advocate for solar and wind, it’s as petty as that. We never leave high school.) Hydrogen doesn’t stack up, in any way at all. It will have some uses, but never as a mass replacement for fossil fuels. It’s also highly explosive, and anything run by hydrogen has to take that into account. The wallies who go on about EVs catching fire should see what’s left of a hydrogen-powered car if it explodes.
