Hydrogen Plant
Eassar Oil UK have been given the go ahead to build a new Hydrogen plant at Stanlow near Elsmere Port.
No doubt some bunch of moaning barstewards will protest about something or other.
Good news for the North West as far as I am concerned.

Re: Hydrogen Plant
Following on what is happening here in Oz.
One of our biggest mining magnates is in to it big time
Says it is the future not wind and solar.
See a number of countries now are ordering Modula nuclear reactors for power supply.
Happy daze John in Oz.

Re: Hydrogen Plant
I also see that Hydrogen Cars are hitting the Market in a Big way now ! Some say they will be a good replacement for the Battery (That keeps on having Troubles Blowing up)
Good range it seems too with about 500 Miles after a full Charge!
Now thats better ??

Re: Hydrogen Plant
I have been involved in the supply of equipment for Hydrogen plants for the Magic Kingdom which is part of Neom and Canada . The Neom one is classed as green hydrogen I don’t know about the other Canadian plant. These plants are referred to green and blue dependent on the energy source ,Neom is Solar lots of sun in Saudis Arabia this is therefore green . The other plants are classed as blue which utilise natural gas or other fossil derivative fuels.
Very few are being built in the West which means we could again be at the mercy of others which may not support our view on life and world outlook

Re: Hydrogen Plant
An electric London bus has blown up in Wimbledon earlier today. It exploded, then burst into flames. Nobody hurt.

Re: Hydrogen Plant
If anyone asked me how I found the uk after re-visiting after a period of time, I would ask them if they ever visited Sfax in North Africa, and if they said yes , then I would say just imagine yourself in the Casbah there and it compares very favourably with a lot of neighbourhoods in the UK. Just shows I am not bigoted . Think I asked Vernon once if he ever took any leave there during his time in the Legion d’estrange. It was one of their R and R destinations I believe. However I might be out of line here as subject is not what I thought , took the lazy way out and just read the last couple of posts . Excusey moi. JS
Apologies to author of the post. I have trouble deleting but anyone wanting to please be my guest . JS

Re: Hydrogen Plant
The world has numerous natural Hydrogen deposits in a similar manner to oil.
It is a far better resource than any EV, no where near the amount of mining required.
We now have a few Hydrogen bowsers coming on line and in Tasmania BP are putting them in all their servos, so they must know something!!!
It is only now some are coming to realise the damage environmentally solar and wind are.
Hydrogen along with Nuclear are the only long term solutions to the energy crisis we ae told we have.
Currently over 450 nuclear power stations globally each covering about a square mile, while to create the same amount of power a wind farm would require some 500 square miles of space.
All the facts are there on the net for those prepared to look rather than be told by the very biased media.
Happy daze John in Oz.
