Well, that was what I said in the post.
It makes perfect sense to use renewables to make Hydrogen because it can be stored and used later.
When the wind does not blow, the electrons do no flow.
If one has not stored the power created from renewable energy, one will have to do without, or turn on the nukes, coal, and gas fire plants. But given many places are tearing down coal and nuke stations one is only left with gas.
After my earlier post, I saw this on the Wall Street Journal,
Energy Prices in Europe Hit Records After Wind Stops Blowing, which is behind a paywall.
They UK papers are talking about consumers paying 18% more for power in October on top of an increase of 36% in the last seven months. That is a huge increase on the cost of power as they head into winter. The UK cost per KWH is $.27 while Germany is $.39 per KWH. Not sure if that includes the price hikes that just happened.
