They were funded as a bet on excess solar power maybe becoming basically free during the day in the future. That is not currently the case.
If we believe in the god of the straight lines and solar trends in terms of cost and deployment continue, isn’t that a reasonable bet in timeframes of 1-2 decades?
We can, however, plan on using a lot of methane in the near future.
So that basically means that requirements for gas heating to be compatible with running on hydrogen are a bad policy because at the point where we could provide synthetic gas we can have methane.
Big ships seem to run reasonably well on natural gas so we don’t need to do anything to switch them except phasing out non-natural gas run ships.
Should we plan to have different ways to power airplanes or is it easier to count on making the kerosine in 2-3 decades synthetically?
