New Flyer is the leading provider of transit buses in North America. It’s also the leading provider of hydrogen buses in North America, which is a problem for it, although it feels like an opportunity. That’s where the bad strategy comes in. As always when I talk about strategy — … [continued]

Unsurprisingly, when it comes to hydrogen, the more real-world data collection and analysis that is done and published, the worse it looks. The latest black eye for the tiny molecule that so many love is in the efficiency of making hydrogen at refueling stations. The Hydrogen Research and Fueling Facility … [continued]

I know, it’s hard to keep track of all these cleantech tax credits. The US is now offering tax credits for solar panels, solar cells, electric cars, batteries, wind turbines, heat pumps, and more. The Inflation Reduction Act created some new ones, extended others, and is stimulating a lot more … [continued]

In the past few days I’ve been going deep on some very odd results out of a Canadian transit think tank’s research and reports for client municipalities, finding that bad assumptions and worse scenarios resulted in $1.5 billion being taken off of hydrogen bus costs. Discussion around this led to … [continued]

In the past week, I’ve been digging into the underpinnings of a few Canadian cities’ current fixation on wasting serious amounts of taxpayer money on hydrogen buses. I had been ignoring it, more than not, as I’d assessed global hydrogen fleet trials and results along with exorbitant global hydrogen transportation … [continued]

Once upon a time, presidential candidate Hillary Clinton made the horrible mistake of telling people that coal power wasn’t coming back in the US, was going to continue to shrink, and people living in coal communities would need to be retrained in clean energy careers.

Hydrogen is the gas that’s the second best escape artist in the universe. Helium has it by an edge because while helium is four times the mass of hydrogen per unit, it comes in atoms, not molecules. Hydrogen only comes with another hydrogen atom in the hydrogen molecule, which ends … [continued]
