We do it.
We don't do it to get large-scale fuels from them, but we have to have hydrogen for a lot of processes in the world.
So why don't we use it for energy yet?
It's expensive.
Okay, so it's not cheap enough.
Yeah, it can't compete yet.
It's not cheap enough.
And why do you think it will?
The dynamics of energy.
Here's when transitions happen, when something better comes along.
Right.
Okay, what's better?
Well, a fuel cell might be better than a battery if it's cost competitive.
We literally, it's always the economics that kick in.
We don't recycle because it's too expensive to recycle, so we just make new stuff.
It's always the cost that drives these transitions at the end of the day and at scale.
Oh, a few local people can afford solar panels and wind turbines, maybe hydrogen fuel cells, but not at scale.
So this is the driver of that.
It needs to come down to about a buck, buck 50, a kilogram hydrogen to compete with other things in most places.
We're not there.
