I thank you Kenny for your link. However the 1600 miles of pipe is not all one pipe line but multiple pipe. Gaseous hydrogen can be transported through pipelines much the way natural gas is today. Approximately 1,600 miles of hydrogen pipelines are currently operating in the United States. Owned by merchant hydrogen producers, these pipelines are located where large hydrogen users, such as petroleum refineries and chemical plants, are concentrated such as the Gulf Coast region. So therefore they are piping short distances from producer to user. I have read somewhere else that a dedicated Hydrogen pipeline would cost in the multiple billions of euros to construct. I have also read that these pipelines would have to be continuously purged of air before Hydrogen is introduced. So local production has to be the favoured route to follow. Once again good for PHEs product.
