There has been a growing push from many sides saying that Hydrogen is the answer to all our energy problems. This is critical to understanding the bigger picture of energy politics. We can’t just dig Hydrogen up from the ground we must create hydrogen from either Water or from organic compounds, and this requires a lot of energy.
