arguably, compressing natural gas into LNG is fucking stupid, but apparently the market rates work out, so it’s economically viable. And here we are compressing a gas into a liquid just to ship it over the ocean lol.
market economies are just funny.

InverseParallax@lemmy.world 16 hours agoI’m not disagreeing, but if the energy is surplus, might as well make hydrogen, at least we don’t end up with pollution.

Oh certainly. Power storage is a real problem, especially with up-down renewables. I just didn’t understand why you were saying oil can’t be produced but hydrogen can. Synthesizing oil for power storage is a terrible idea 😄

Same for hydrogen really.
