Buckster Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Hydrogen as a fuel in piston engines looks interesting but it’s also mildly terrifying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel le Moose Fondler Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Funny you should mention that....They are building a hydrogen plant located 20 km away in the port of Belldune...for shipping hydrogen to the UK I believe.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok I you're running a tractor but not a lot of good for the modern day injectors. And it's very dirty, much more than refined diesel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupid Stunt Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I was using hydrogen in my diesel motor years ago, back in about 2006 I believe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzzak Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Electric vehicles are a ploy to get rid of petrol cars, eventually there will be no cars and you will be confined to your area, 15 minute cities anyone, already they are waging war on the old car market, check out Geoff, he makes a lot of sense. When I went to buy my new Nissan I was lucky to find a cheaper car available, I mentioned this to a few people and they had all noticed the same, buying a clunker for the kids is gone, all part of the plan methinks.

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted June 5, 2023 Author Share Posted June 5, 2023 I think hydrogen from solar power looks the most promising. But I heard a professor who advised the government on the radio saying talking to the government was like trying to get information through a very thick brick wall. Meanwhile the Netherland storms ahead and we'll probably end up importers rather than exporters.. again. Heyho. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
