This could be a game changer

We can generate hydrogen from current technology and we do not need fossil fuels to generate electricity. Solar power is readily available.

I am a Chemical engineer and will try and read about this technique later, but even if this is viable, it will be decades away. A patent does not mean much, its is not for the technology itself but the individual claims within it.

I am quite suspicious of the right wing pushing fuel cell technology, especially since none of the automotive companies are willing to jump on the band wagon. I personally do think that fuel cells are better suited for heavy vehicles, especially those that burn diesel.

Although not where there is significant cloud cover on a regular basis.

A hydrogen generating plant can be built in the sunbelt states. Tear down Disneyworld in Florida and build a hydrogen plant there.

Most new power generation is from solar since they can go up rapidly and requires minimal maintenance and worst/best of all, requires no labor. There is a huge solar farm on the outskirts of Reno, thousands taking up an entire hillside.

Requires a water source anywhere for elecyrolysis, and best for excess energy generation storage due to process insertion losses compared to direct charging.
