    Or we could fly less. More zoom calls.

    Studying cost over global warming is amazing. If these government and companies truly cared they would have some stopped the use of fossil fuel a long time ago.

    Take the green hydrogen and react it with captured CO2 making methanol. Much easier to store and transport than hydrogen and no problem running a normal jet engine on it.

      Better to just go all the way and make e-kerosene.

    factories to produce hydrogen, at all airports and train stations as well as other locations. Reminds me of Edisons first generation D.C. system were power plants would have to be installed everywhere...

    They say there is so much methane in the polar regions - can we use that methane?!

    Problem is, a pound of hydrogen carries less energy than a pound of pretty much anything else.
    It would make more sense to put feathers on your planes, and pull them off and feed them into the boiler as you fly along.

      You're confusing volume with mass. Hydrogen has three times more energy per pound than kerosene

      It doesnt matter because unlike kerosene almost 100% of it can be converted to energy since it doesnt produce heat. Toyota mirai have an average hydrogen consumption of about 0.74 kg per 100km. The record is 0,55 but on a smooth road without braking, changing speed and without heating the car.

    Seems like there must be lower-hanging fruit then aviation industry to convert to a green energy source.

    Hydrogen fuel for places send like a great idea on paper. Storing more of it in the plane's tank increases its boyency instead of weighing it down because hydrogen is lighter than air. I could see it as a way of storing energy from solar panels (instead of charging a dollar battery, use the solar energy to split H2O, which can be used as fuel when sunlight is not available ; and while the hydrogen fuel is sitting in the tank, it's lowering the amount of energy required to fly the plane since it's essentially making it lighter, almost as if it was half plane, half zeppelin).

    • @joelbolduc3354
      @joelbolduc3354 5 місяців тому

      Obviously, ironing out the details is a big engineering feat that we have to overcome. In particular, if the plane has a tragically different shape, making it still aerodynamic will require quite some innovation.

      "and while the hydrogen fuel is sitting in the tank, it's lowering the amount of energy required to fly the plane since it's essentially making it lighter"
      Do you think hydrogen tanks are positively buoyant in air? Do you think filling an empty hydrogen tank with hydrogen makes it lighter? What are you talking about? Seriously, examine your thinking, there's something very, very, VERY obvious you're missing.

      I like your point about whether Hydrogen is positively buoyant or not. 👍

    • @Byefriendo
      @Byefriendo 5 місяців тому +1

      Compressed and liquidfied hydrogen is absolutely not positively bouyant. If we stored hydrogen at pressure/density low enough to be bouyant in air you simply wouldnt have the energy or power required to run a fuel cell.

    Most flying is not essential. Only a small portion of the population flies a lot. The solution is much less flying. Start by banning private jets and frequent flier programs.
