But again, here is the newest research, done a year after the report from Rocky Mountain you cited.

Hydrogen is a more potent greenhouse gas than previously reported, new study reveals.

Indirect atmospheric warming effects of H2 shown with more certainty to be higher than ever, increasing climate risk of hydrogen leakage.

Crap, I'm so sorry. I meant "modular." I brought it up a couple of years ago in a climate series I posted here. ancianita Oct 2023 #5

Ever heard of the Rocky Mountain Institute? Caribbeans Oct 2023 #8

Thanks for your post. No, I don't have complete exposure to all the current energy orgs out there, or the RMI. ancianita Oct 2023 #9

The Rocky Mountain Institute is not exactly new OKIsItJustMe Nov 2023 #13

Sorry, it's just a hole in my exposure, apparently. Thank you for the info. I'll be reading more on them. ancianita Nov 2023 #14
