Hydrogen’s Seven Missing Pieces
I wrote another technoeconomic assessment of why hydrogen will not be cheap, and the reaction from hydrogen advocates was familiar. They focused on small pieces of the analysis and treated each point as if it existed in isolation. That pattern confirmed something important. The debate is not about one technology … [continued]

After publishing the summary of the study that assessed 2,000 hydrogen projects worldwide, one finding stood out. Across the total spectrum of use cases, electrification provided roughly 80% better emissions reductions than hydrogen. The data also showed that the overall climate benefit of hydrogen, once all losses and logistics were … [continued]

Hydrogen Dreams, Fiscal Nightmares: South Korea’s Stubborn Bet on FCEVs
Global hydrogen vehicle sales have fallen sharply again in 2025. Passenger and commercial markets that were once seen as the proving grounds for fuel-cell technology are shrinking fast. According to SNE Research, fewer than 9,000 hydrogen vehicles were sold worldwide in the first nine months of the year, down from … [continued]
