      I have little idea. Why not storing this excess energy in efuel. Meaning we take hydrogen and combine it with carbon to get efuel. Why we do that because it's more efficient no need to compress or cool the efuel. Just suggestion. Mina from egypt . Wish you the best

    Hydrogen is ok. Costs a lot of energy and water to produce, store, transport and consume. Basically a less efficient natural gas in terms of energy and cost but greener.

    Just asking for your opinion on a different concept of my own that is quite basic. The build can at least be of 2 ultra strong permanent magnets, one above another where the top magnet stays stationary on a plastic* container filled with water while the other is inside that container. Between the top magnet and the container needs to be a very narrow gap for which a light sheet of lead* can easily slide between the magnets just enough to cause the bottom magnet to fall as if it were a delicate power switch that the rise and fall will help* generate more electrical power than it would take to move the lead* sheet in and out of that gap in least frictionless way, maybe levitated by other magnets. The water is basic to prevent damaging and even far to much noise.
    .
    In summary... it would be as if the permanent magnets can be switch on and off like electro-magnets.
    .
    I tend to come up with a whole lot of various ideas that worked out awesomely, but... not always able to test some of my ideas out.

    The potential of Hydrogen as a fuel and power source is fascinating. I find it puzzling as to why it doesn't get anywhere near as much attention as battery power does especially given that at 7.05 the project manager explains how hydrogen is being used to extend the range of the electric vehicle and as this documentary also shows, hydrogen can power ships and even planes. It will be very interesting to come back to the Orkney islands in 10 years!

    Overall life cycle emissions of electronics is widely varied.
    Even Google search query consuming ~0.3w energy is kind of a guess. It depends on how old of a process ICs are used for server, networking and client device. How optimized hardware and software is for any given task. Weather or not waste heat is reused or forced in to environment with even more energy.
    Same with artificial light these days. High efficiency LEDs can deliver ~200 lm per watt. Which is a fraction incandescent bulb consomption (~13lm per watt) at similar brightness.
    Power consumption per MB of data is lower on a Gigabit Ethernet than on Fast Ethernet. Thanks to EEE faster connection can sleep for longer :)

    Hydrogen leaks no matter the material used as its container as it is the simplest element and therefor the smallest. Any other solid element's atom size would be like a size of a basketball while hydrogen atom would be the size of a marble so there would be gaps between the basketballs for the marbles to fall thru. And if the leak ignites from, say, static electricity the flames would be invisible, so you wouldn't know if its on flames.

    But there is larger problem of transportation and storage with hydrogen.. And if you calculate the efficiency until it reach your vehicle it is only 33% which is much less than electric vehicle and more over it is not economical

    • @ArthursHD
      @ArthursHD 3 года назад

      It still makes sense on long distance heavy transport. Like ships due to energy density BEVs would be less efficient due to additional weight.
      Europe and Asia could benefit from a unified, electrified railway system to transport goods more efficiently :)
      If we were willing to unifi railway It could take ~50 years just to retire old equipment and consolidate it into a smaller and smaller area. So we don't create unnecessary emissions. To increase capacity we could use double decker trains. For efficiency we could automate train network, drive slower when capacity allows and when electricity is more expensive. Containers that see a lot of miles could be changed to fiberglass instead due better aerodynamics and reduced weight.
      We should order in advance from bulk so we would need less packaging and less containers with flexible delivery :)

      @@samad4895 we still need to calculate which process in energy efficient. Because to store hydrogen alone u need to compress and cool it which take a lot of energy then to reproduce electricity from hydrogen it's 25 less energy efficient. Meanwhile efuel could be more efficient. Keep in mind we can capture co2 from burning the efuel to recycle it which could save energy rather than capture co2 from atmosphere.

    So firstly good video Thankyou for your great work. I do believe green hydrogen will have a part in the future of our renewable world especially in planes , large boats and maybe long haul trucking , I disagree with it being used for energy storage or small vehicles.
    The main problem is that the base level physics for producing green hydrogen means that you get 20% of the electricity that you put in out . This is unavoidable.
    Meanwhile grid scale battery storage is cheap to implement, converts electricity at a very high 90% ratios on efficiency, which means compared to hydrogen you get 4-5 times more out of your stored electricity. And the technology is here now and can get us to our goals in time .
    Same to be said for electric cars , instead of hydrogen where electricity cars can easily have 300 + miles now and most of the charging is done overnight at your home , the only time you need to charge quickly is if you do a long road trip in which you generally want or stop every few hours anyway .
    So in conclusion I would say green hydrogen has a big part to play in our future but we should be using the currently rapidly expanding technology we already have that works very well , as we research and develop newer technologies to complement them too. But waiting 15 years to have large scale usable hydrogen technologies is too late . We need to be rapidly transitioning now with what we have.

      @owen bradshaw Great comment, I completely agree hydrogen has a big part to play but when it comes to smaller vehicles like cars, battery power is more practical. That being said, battery power has still some pretty big challenges, especially when it comes to disposal and waste. I think hydrogen could have a bigger role to play especially if electrolysis of water can be made more economical. While I also agree we can't wait for the transition, it would be great to come back to Orkney in 10-15 years and see the progress of these technologies.
