by the by - goal setting... what a concept! Wait now, how's about hydrogen fuel cells... me likee - and you member wilber?

Goal setting is fine, even better when it is up to others and not you to meet your goals.

Liquid hydrogen must be stored below -259 C and it has about a quarter of the energy density by volume of gasoline or diesel. Plus you need a way of producing it in volume that has low CO2 emissions in its own right. Most hydrogen is produced from natural gas. There is a process being explored of combing it with ammonia to keep it liquid at ambient temperatures but that will have its own issues and there is still the low energy density. Might be good for applications where storage size isn’t a big issue.

There is no silver bullet replacement for petroleum, that’s why we are still using it after all these years.
