  2. Toyota investing billions into hydrogen has not failed. Japan is moving to a hydrogen society, so that will come to fruition. Also, in the UK there is a move to convert the huge natural gas network into hydrogen. Exhausted natural gas fields under the North Sea are being looked at to store hydrogen. The first stage next year is to have a 20% hydrogen mix with natural gas as the existing burners need no adaptation. So 20% less natural gas emissions reduction quite quickly. A few weeks back there was a successful UK hydrogen train trial. They want hybrid trains that run on electric wires and then seamlessly run off the wires on unelectrified track using hydrogen - it saves fortune in track electrification installation and maintenance. The hydrogen can be generated at the train depot using electricity, eliminating transportation of the fuel. It looks like hydrogen will be for heavy vehicles, like trains and ships.

  4.  @Leonardo555ZZZZ  The new British government voted in in Thursday, is setting up British Energy. They will control energy and prices. So the country is not open to private rip-off merchants.

  5.  @patrickd9551  In the UK nuclear supplies a stable supply as the plants are not turned off. Gas can be turned on, on-demand.

  7.  @ecospider5  In the UK they are looking at small water reservoirs built high above lakes, or any body of water for that matter. Wind can operate pumps to pump water up to these reservoirs in low demand, at night, or when producing too much electricity, then release it when needed, like at peak times or no wind or sun. Then no need to rely on rain in damming rivers.

  11.  @patrickd9551  You are very wrong. Sound like US right wing propaganda has got to you.

  12.  @patrickd9551  A nuclear plant takes decades from saying we need one to having it online. In the meantime wind and solar has impacted at a phenomenal rate. Nuclear is better than using the atmosphere as a garbage dump.

  13. Finland is dumping nuclear waste from many countries in deep mines, then sealing it up.

  14.  @wora1111  Nuclear waste is not a problem as the world is full of disused deep mines way below the water table.

  15. LED lighting and more efficient appliances also reduces grid demand. In Europe insulating homes also reduces demand.

  16. Many supermarkets in the UK have chargers in car parks. They say they hope to have all parking slots with chargers. They are slow, but more than replenish what you used to go shopping.

  18. Musk has lost his mind for sure. Or if he still has his mind, he sees Trump as the next winner. Trump is against EVs, so Musk can then try to get him to change his mind. Trump is open to bribery.

  19. If people think Seba talks BS, all his old vids are still there to watch.
