European Union Commissioners Arrive In India Aboard Hydrogen-Powered Bus For Bilateral Talks www.freepressjournal.in/india/europe...

Since 1975, @nyserda.bsky.social has been advancing NY's energy system & economy. In the early 1980s while at the Thermo Electron R&D Center I ran a NYSERDA efficiency project under Gunnar Walmet that fuel-switched #2 fuel oil for natural gas at Brooklyn-based Super Glass, & improved their controls

#Startups101 Part of the reason why I can't take ECL Data Centers seriously is because they proposed↙️ a perfect example of what is posited by my #3rocktheory ↘️: - 3D-printed structures - hydrogen-powered - off-grid #SMDH

What a f*ing sick minded nut job!

#AGW #ClimateBsky "In the port city of Alexandria, located on Egypt’s Mediterranean coast, the rate of building collapses has jumped from approximately one per year to around 40 per year...buildings are collapsing from the bottom up, as seawater intrusion erodes foundations and weakens the soil"

Seoul to offer increased subsidy for hydrogen-powered buses from March www.koreaherald.com/article/1042...

#Thermodynamics101 @addisonkstark.bsky.social & AtmosZero are way above the competition with their heat pump steam boiler! See @janrosenow.bsky.social 2024Dec12⬇️ Coefficient of Performance #COP= T-hot ÷ (T-hot - T-cold) So COP = (150 + 273.15) ÷ [150 - (-13)] = 2.60 And Lift = [150 - (-13)] = 163C

#Hydrogen101 IMO Bosch's @BoschGlobal exit from SOLID OXIDE FUEL CELLS signals a realization of the numerous technical difficulties in #SOFC systems (thermal, stability, lifetime...) NOTE: "Bosch’s pivot to focus on PEM electrolysis and hydrogen production..." says it all. #hydrogen #fuelcell #H2

Would you pay $29.99 for a bouquet of expired romance? Come on, CVS, even heartbreaks last longer than these roses! 💀🌹💸

Awesome

Here's what the entire federal workforce actually looks like. It's mostly doctors, nurses and healthcare workers in VA hospitals, the military, and then everything else.

“The more we’ve learnt about how to do nuclear power, the more expensive it’s got. That’s the opposite of what usually happens.” Quote from Prof. Bent Flyvbjerg in great piece by FT on why so many nuclear projects get a) delayed and b) are over budget. www.ft.com/content/5e56...

It's happening. Starting Feb 1, Trump will impose massive tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China. The move throws a bomb into three of the world's biggest trading relationships. How will it work, and what will the impact be? Here's what we know so far. www.gzeromedia.com/us-canada/it...

People who support "batteries for everything" are generally the same people who would freak out if battery raw materials were made in their home state, city, or backyard. As long as metal is smelted with coal a half a world away and climate justice warriors can't see it, they pretend it's green.

Absolutely no sweat that deepseek hasn't disclosed a single skerrick of actual evidence or substantiation of its energy claims....

Breaking update: After multiple law suits, the Trump White House rescinds a Monday order that attempted to freeze dispersenent of all federal grants and loans, which caused chaos across federal agencies and at millions of funding recipients nationwide. wapo.st/4jA0TMM

granitegeek.concordmonitor.com/2025/01/28/a... Is this what it might take to complete electrification in urban areas, esp. In the face of local opposition to new substations? (See www.wbur.org/news/2024/09...)

1) New lignin-based jet fuel as a bio-based liquid hydrogen organic carrier #LOHC 2) TRL3 →10yr to commercial demo 3) They call it #HyC instead of #LOHC to make it sound new 3) No data/metrics on #hydrogen carrying capacity of #HyC 4) At least they got a publication out of it! #H2 #GreenHydrogen

If you're looking for creative sanity in US politics, this is one of the places you'll find it. The people and institutions behind this report were part of the brain-trust that drove the IRA.
