You mean, hydrogen fuel (made from water) is dirty, vs batteries which are a fig leaf and can't do shit

Europe, 2050:

β†’ wind 25%
β†’ solar 25%
β†’ nuclear, bioenergy, hydropower 25%
β†’ imported hydrogen 25%

On the other hand, hydrogen has no material constraints; silicon [sand] for the wafers, and water as feedstock

Or wind, which is functional for EU demand (600GW max via North Sea)

And an off-ramp for fossil producers via CCS and eventually pyrolysis, retrofitting unused CO2 pipelines for hydrogen

Hypothetically, we (globally) might get to 5-10TWh of battery storage by 2035

Multiply by 400 (365) for cycling

This is only 2,000-4,000TWh of energy, out of a global (non-primary) energy consumption (all sources) of 120,000TWh

Batteries won't work Also cannot be used in a vast range of use cases

Sorry, you are absolutely clueless. Batteries are not going to replace fossil fuels. Electricity demand is dropping in OECD countries. We are offshoring emissions, not reducing them. Actually study the subject, and do some research

Batteries will not work for:

β€ͺβ€’ seasonal energy storage
β€’ steel
β€’ copper
β€’ aluminium
β€’ mining
β€’ batteries
β€’ cement
β€’ chemicals
β€’ glass
β€’ ceramics
β€’ long haul trucking
β€’ utility vehicles
β€’ aviation
β€’ shipping
β€’ gas turbines
β€’ data centres
β€’ etc

Europe doesn't even make any batteries

There will be 1TWh of battery storage globally by 2030. In hydrogen, the EU target is 660TWh by this time (imports + domestic)

Simplistic ideas are not helpful

There will be 1TWh of battery storage by 2030. In hydrogen, the figure is 1,200TWh globally (probably more)

Global energy demand: 120,000TWh

Without CCS, net zero is absolutely impossible. CCS is an established technology which has been successfully operating for decades

It also provides a realistic off-ramp for fossil energy suppliers to transition away from oil and gas, to hydrogen

CO2 infrastructure is being built throughout Europe

Nice article, but just a few points:

Hydrogen compressors We are a global market leader in hydrogen compressors with over 2500+ units operating in hydrogen applications.

Hydrogen is pumped through at 3x the rate.

The main problem for existing #hydrogen use cases is infrastructure (being built, see recent PCI list..) and supporting market mechanisms (CfDs + quotas, like for renewables)

If the REPowerEU #hydrogen objective of 20mtpa was reached in 2030 (660TWh) this would be double the current EU solar output of 350TWh

And grids are only starting to get constrained, while 8 electrolyser gigafactories in Europe have not yet ramped up production

Electricity consumption is declining
