Comment on Oil sector is lobbying for inefficient hydrogen cars to delay electrification

Wikipedia quotes 30% for diesel generation. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_generator (see typical operating costs)

According to the EIA, natural gas has the highest efficiency at around 43% as of 2015. Coal, oil, and nuclear plants all fall around 33%, with nuclear keeping a slight lead. www.energyandcapital.com/articles/…/76858

Additionally I did specifically say that electricity would still be better for cars unless hydrogen production were such that more suitable uses were fully supplied.
