I wish I got to do fun little projects like this at my job. Anyway, this proof of concept shows that hydrogen would be a great alternative to propane and natural gas for cooking. Hat tip to @[email protected].

Huh? It's big oil and the like who are pushing hydrogen over electricity.

And the problem with hydrogen is largely to do with the laws of physics, so it's unlikely to change soon.

I don't understand this suspicion. It's easier to burn fossil fuels for electricity than to reform them into hydrogen.

But they can still sell hydrogen, they can't really sell solar panels. Even encouraging people to keep burning things (like hydrogen) benefits gas since it slows down electric alternatives to gas heating.

They don't have to sell hydrogen or solar panels. They'll just keep selling fuel to power plants.
