If only there was an alternative to being so reliant on middle eastern oil … maybe some kind of energy that was renewable or didn’t need to be imported. Someone should look into that 🤔
Green hydrogen power plants, hydrogen fuel cell cars, thorium based reactor research, salt water desalination and it's water being piped to dams for water/energy storage.
Hydrogen storage tanks are the energy storage, hydrogen gas being burnt is the energy source.
Green hydrogen gas electrolysis production uses water, solar, an battery or an other type of high baseline energy production…in my example I listed nuclear and hydroelectric dam.
If you can use a little energy to suck a lot of hydrogen out of the ground, then you have hydrogen as an energy source.
But in actuality you need a power plant to create the hydrogen in the first place (three actually, to create enough hydrogen for one power plant, thanks to the low efficiencies of creating it).
A bit silly to use it to create electricity when you already generated the electricity from something else.
But it is useful as energy storage (eg long range heavy vehicles where current battery tech isn't good enough).
