Comment on Toyota builds experimental hydrogen-powered pizza oven and grill.

Ha. So we are banning farmers from owning livestock
Sure, if you produce the hydrogen from natural gas then you have a problem because that stuff comes with plenty of methane which won’t suddenly stop leaking.
Also if you inject hydrogen into the existing natural gas pipeline.
The point here is that hydrogen leaks are very much an issue. Your previous statement was false.

Noone here is planning to inject hydrogen into existing pipelines. If anything, synthesising methane during the transition so that consumers only have to switch their burners once, from nat gas to hydrogen, and not first to nat gas + more hydrogen. Gotta switch whole municipalities at once doesn’t make sense to duplicate the last-mile gas pipes.

Ok. Not you. But lots of people elsewhere in this thread.
Agree. Burning hydrogen has to be done carefully to avoid NOx and other side effects.
Agreed. Industrial green hydrogen is a necessity to remove fossil fuels.
Residential hydrogen I am very sceptical about. Even 100% clean fuel cells burn too hot for domestic heating.
