Debunking The Myth: Existing Natural Gas Pipelines Are Not A Cheap Slam Dunk For Transporting Hydrogen

Credit to Author: Michael Barnard| Date: Mon, 17 Mar 2025 16:15:28 +0000

Hydrogen proponents love to paint a rosy picture of the future — one where we simply repurpose existing natural gas pipelines for hydrogen transport, avoiding the need for costly new infrastructure. This claim is simplistic, misleading, and built on a foundation of wishful thinking rather than engineering realities. This is … [continued]

Iowa Adds Green Hydrogen To Its Renewable Energy Roster

Credit to Author: Tina Casey| Date: Mon, 17 Mar 2025 15:59:20 +0000

The deep red state of Iowa has long bucked the right-wing tide on energy policy. Despite its conservative slant on other matters, Iowa leads the US in biofuel production. It also tops all other states in percent of electricity generated by wind energy, at 59%. So, it’s no surprise to … [continued]

From Death Stars to Warp Drives: Debunking Hydrogen’s Techno-Utopia

Credit to Author: Michael Barnard| Date: Sun, 16 Mar 2025 06:02:25 +0000

As someone who combines a lifelong passion for speculative fiction with rigorous expertise in energy systems and the analytical lens of an English literature student, I approach Erik Rakhou’s Touching Hydrogen Future (2022) and Jeremy Rifkin’s The Hydrogen Economy (2002) with both fascination and deep skepticism. Viewed through this dual … [continued]

Debunking The Myth: Today’s Industrial Use of Hydrogen Doesn’t Mean It’s A Good Energy Carrier

Credit to Author: Michael Barnard| Date: Sat, 15 Mar 2025 20:39:31 +0000

Advocates of hydrogen often misleadingly point to its widespread industrial use today as evidence of its potential as a broad energy carrier. This, however, is a clear example of the equivocation fallacy: the term “hydrogen use” is subtly shifted from its real-world role in industry to suggest a broader, more … [continued]
