    What makes you think so, or do you say that based on the content alone? I don’t have the impression they are pro-battery or against hydrogen, also don’t think they would let themselves be paid without mentioning someone did that.

        Trains are the answer. Last mile with cars or trucks is okay. But not for hundreds or thousands of kilometers.

        Hydrogen is an absolute pain to store and transport and all the practical hydrogen production methods are dirty right now. It just isn’t even a real option even after years of development.

            That’d be green hydrogen. Gray or blue hydrogen, both sourced from methane, is not produced using electricity.

            Green hydrogen is practically speaking not cost-effective with current production parameters, and as such, gray and blue rules the day. Hence, hydrogen is effectively just another form of fossil fuel for the time being.

              The fossil fuel industry pushes the hydrogen fairy tale partly because they’re the ones who can produce and profit at scale from hydrogen and partly because no one can actually switch to hydrogen for a goodly while yet.
