@[email protected] Also it is easy to add a fuel tender to a train, much as they did back in the coal stream days.
Retired engineer. Interested in clean hydrogen as energy currency, economic systems where endless growth isn’t a built in requirement, and areas of science, archeology and technology where new discoveries and new data are contradicting established narratives.

@[email protected] Typo. 4.6MWh x $100/kWh =~$500000
@[email protected] The PICEA system is interesting. At ~$100/kWh that would still cost me ~$50000 to get my home through the Ontario winter. Costs still need to come down at least one order of magnitude.
@[email protected] My dataset shows that in Ontario the household annual kWh is 5x higher. In addition the seasonal storage requirement is 4.6MWh which makes economics difficult even with H2.
@[email protected] Mazda already has a serial hydrid vehicle that is a great starting point. Problem is that they refuse to bring it to my Ontario market.

@[email protected] Anyone who has removed a leaky AA battery knows what this process involves: KOH in battery electrolyte reacting with CO2 in the air to produce K2CO3; the white chalky substance we see at leaky end. For Equatics process to be economical we have to price carbon. In terms of my renewable carbon amplification model this one is probably very high ( no numbers in paper). To bad Ontario has only one northern sea coast.
