You can tell a group is not worth listening to when they cite Michael Barnard articles at Cleantechnica as their support for their viewpoints on hydrogen.
Heads up #EETFuels. Hydrogen makes sense in a few industrial applications and very little else. Refining crude isn't one of them. #HyNet is critically flawed because its key application is refining climate wrecking fossil fuels and prolonging their use.
Hydrogen, Measured Properly: What 2,000 Projects Reveal About Its Climate Value - CleanTechnica
landmark Nature Energy study confirms hydrogen belongs in heavy industry, not cars or heating. Data now backs what engineers have long argued.

Support batteries if you like, no problem. But you don't get to say they don't require "burning" anything. The battery supply chain has a critical dependency on burning coal. So, no burning coal, no batteries. It's that simple.
"What we don't have to do is find the next thing to burn" @mliebreich.bsky.social welcomes Erik Rakhou this week for an in-depth discussion on hydrogen, debating its potential necessity, appropriate uses, and economic justification. Watch now - www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSWD... #cleaninguppod

Barnard repeatedly misrepresents data, selectively quotes sources, and relies on misleading framing rather than honest analysis. When a journalist uses those tactics to push an agenda, it stops being legitimate criticism and becomes propaganda. Read this.

RMP is publishing an exposé piece on Michael Barnard's subversive & unobjective hydrogen reporting. Nothing Barnard publishes (or Cleantechnica) should be taken seriously. Barnard is narrative driven to mislead readers into thinking 'batteries -vs- hydrogen' when the technologies are complimentary.
Several years ago, there was still doubt as to whether batteries or hydrogen would dominate in the truck market. The answer seems to be emerging. It's batteries. We've seen increased interest in DockChain in the trucking industry too.

More and more people are wising up to the fact that batteries alone come up short in replacing fossil fuels. They’re further realizing that the one country dominating the battery, solar, & rare earth supply chains is burning 85PJ of coal per yr & experiencing mining impacts on their drinking water.
More and more companies are wising up to the fact that using green hydrogen as a fuel source does not - and never will - make economic sense.
Its only viable use case is in replacing black/grey H2 as a chemical feedstock.
Anything else just delays the energy transition.
