My personal dream scenario is one, where renewables and nuclear become such cheap production methods, that electricity is cheap and abundant.
At that point one could just use that energy to synthesize fuel to avoid the hassle that is hydrogen storage.
We need to go carbon negative, not neutral. So, everywhere we can avoid dump CO2 into the atmosphere is good.
This being said, if we could do it from carbon captured CO2...
Thats the point of having energy abundance. When electricity costs are low enough, it wouldn't matter, if the source of synthetic fuel was not the most energy efficient one.
