' “would produce enough hydrogen to meet a significant portion of the forecasted demand in the UK”'
We need as much generating power as we can muster. Nobody yet is really tackling the power generation required for trucks, buses, trains where hydrogen facilities are going to be needed as being more functional/attractive/desirable than batteries which carry impossibly heavy weight, have deteriorating power profile, generate emissions during their manufacture. What mW. power would be required to recharge container ships batteries in a practically short time to provide the equivalent of 100,000 hp for up to three months on a voyage, or equivalent of 18000 tonnes of diesel fuel. These ships will visit our country to deliver our goods and will need refuelling, (either electric or fuel cell)
Long term, I know, but we will eventually need to provide for it.
