Because electrification has become a panacea to policy-makers. A magic cure-all solution to all emission problems. So we decided that we will let electricity demand run amok, with no coordinated plan to keep power usage in check. In reality, ideas like reducing power demand and limiting electricity usage will be necessary, even if it direct contradicts previous policies. Ultimately, this is another heavy industry, and making it green is going to be extremely hard. Doubly-so, if you are planning to absolutely explode power consumption.
Sooner or later, something will give. Either we admit that we have to spend many trillions of dollars to upgrade the grid, or realize that electrification isn't the magic solution everyone thought it was. Heck, maybe even admit that some "green policies" were actually just corporate marketing from certain companies that benefit from electrification. You could even go as far as calling it greenwashing.
In short, the death of Moore's Law is about the end of economic scaling of transistors. Packing more transistors on a chip does not save you money like it use to. This contradicts the point of Moore's Law.
Developed by CRRC Changchun Railway Co., China's first home grown hydrogen energy urban train successfully completed its test run on a trial line at a speed of 160 kilometers per hour in Changchun, northeast China's Jilin Province on Thursday.
It's actually the cheapest at what it does. Like I said, you are basically repeating the language of fossil fuel companies. It is tragic that certain "pro-green" groups have basically chosen to oppose green energy because they have already made up their minds about what green technology can be.
You have been brainwashed by particular corporate interests. You are basically becoming a climate change denier because you cannot accept facts outside of your worldview, nor are you even aware of the necessary steps needed to eliminate all GHG emissions. You'll starve half of humanity and shut down all industry due to your narrow understanding of the issue.
You can store hydrogen underground at a tiny fraction of the cost of any other type of energy storage. All you are demonstrating is your incredible ignorance of the topic. Like I said, you are stuck in the past and are repeating obsolete "facts," mainly because you have already decide what green energy could ever be.
