In the EU, hydrogen. Either by fuel cell or burnt in hydogen ready NG plants. Wouldn't be my first choice but thats whats gonna happen.

Could be, however hydrogen is really tough to handle plus green generation is around 50% efficiency (something like that). Also imagine having huge hydrogen volume and there is a spark...

[-] Hugohase@startrek.website 1 points 1 month ago

Well... It's the current strategy.

Also, the same could be said about NG [efficiency about 30%-55% and also a little bit flameable].

Strategy doesn't mean it will be actually implemented or it's the best. For example, Ursula instructed the transportation guy to try to implement Hyperloop. Shall I say more? :) There is also strategy to ditch fossil fuel cars soon....

Now you are getting away from arguments...

You think? I'm saying that we can have a strategy, but that doesn't guarantee the outcome. Again, show me a city scale energy storage today. So, until we have one, it's vaporware. Basically this strategy is based on what exactly? Hope?

The strategy is being implemented, infrastructure being build. Electrolysers and hydrogen ready NGs are planed and build. New NG infrastructure is hydrogen ready. What else are you expecting? Should things magically materialise?
