The hype is definitely unjustified and there are new technologies popping up every week - very unusual As to the statement "Mr Flis said the current cost of producing “green hydrogen” via electrolysis was about $3.50 a kilogramme, but it needed to drop to $2 to compete with generation using fossil fuels. That could take a decade, he added." What is he smoking? Prices will be very soon around $1 Kg I am working on such project in NDA process with users of hydrogen and hopefully cooperation with ORNL and INL. There is already a company that claims profitable extraction of hydrogen below $1 from crude oil deposits, and decomposing organic mater (municipality waste) under pressure and heat of super-critical water is in process of being commercialized. slideshare.net

Having been Mr Alternative Fuels 35 years ago, it's amusing watching wet behind the ears newbies who don't understand engineering or economics "discover" hydrogen. My boss in BP way back in 1986 worked for Shell in the early 1970s when he was keen on hydrogen. That's 50 years ago. I explained to him why BP shouldn't chase hydrogen. Methanol made sense, for a while until oil fell and engines got better and better and cheaper and cheaper. Today in my Camry tootling along at 16km per litre I was amazed at the improvement over my 11 km per litre 3 litre 20 year old camry just a couple of years ago. My old car was fine but obsolete because of improved efficiency. And the old one was already much better than 1986 cars. And this Camry is 6 years old and not a hybrid which are more efficient. But much more expensive which is okay for taxis. Mqurice
