Comment on Honda and Mitsubishi will test a fuel cell-powered data center in Japan
abhibeckert@lemmy.world 1 year agoIt’s FUD. There’s literally more than a dozen different ways to produce hydrogen.
Yes, right now, the cheapest options are some of the “dirtier” ones, however the cost to produce zero emission hydrogen is coming down rapidly and fossil fuel produced hydrogen is going up in price.
The two are expected to cross over in the next few years and green hydrogen, typically using solar power to split seawater, will be the cheapest way to produce hydrogen and nobody in their right mind would get it from any of the more expensive sources.

This is basically how all green energy ideas start. Wind and solar power went through the same thing. What we're seeing are people who dismiss new ideas, either because they're climate change deniers or because they're outdated and don't want to see change they don't understand.
