China generates 99.9% pure 'green hydrogen' as world's largest H2 producer

news.cgtn.com China generates 99.9% pure 'green hydrogen' as world's largest H2 producer

The world's largest green hydrogen project, which generates hydrogen from solar and wind renewables without emitting carbon dioxide, produced its first batch of "green hydrogen" on Thursday in Ordos, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region in north China.

China reporting that China is doing great... Call me Mr. Skeptical.

- So, what are the numbers reported by other parties?

  All of lemmy.ml is Pro-CCP. For those unaware, lemmy.ml was created because the developers and admins were too tankie, they "splintered" off and created lemmygrad.ml, but still actively manipulate other instances, especially lemmy.ml.

- Yeah, better go read some US propaganda against their peer competitor for some real facts about China. 😂

  Who said anything about America? Fuck America. You know, most countries don't brainwash their citizens with China-level nationalism.

  From your own article 😂
  
  China is the largest producer and consumer of hydrogen globally, but less than 0.1 percent of the hydrogen it produces comes from renewable energy sources.

  Or there is a middle ground where you'll actually get a nuanced take?
  
  I'm mostly curious about what they're going to do with the hydrogen. Fuel cells? No hydrogen tech I know off has really proven scalable, reliable and cost effective. And while hydrogen generation was part of the issue it wasn't the biggest one. I'm also keen to understand if they use fresh water or salt water. The latter then there is potential for a energy neutral or positive even desalination process which would be massive for large swaths of Africa.

  This is just whataboutism. Talking about the US doesn't remove any critique of china. We were talking about China here. And CGTN (the news source which was linked) has a documented bias towards china

  Hey real question: Do you work at state media? I used to work at China Daily. Maybe we've crossed paths

Let's see, we have a post about China and then a ton of passive-agressive attacks in the comments, lots of bad faith and unsubstantiated arguments, a laughable two-sided view of the world, and a complete inability to form articulated responses using facts and logic? I think I've seen this before .. oh, right, of course this is from https://lemmy.ml/u/yogthos with some help from https://lemmy.ml/u/gary_host_laptop

  thank you for your psychoanalysis

Well that's better than making it from coal and natural gas (as most hydrogen is made)

Storing and transporting hydrogen is inefficient and nontrivial. This article glosses over this.

It makes more sense to convert the hydrogen to methane after it's produced for storage and transport.

I've dreamed of using existing natural gas pipeline infrastructure to pipe H from renewable resources around for building heating for a decade. Hope the US does it and would be equally glad, maybe gladder considering the US headstart, if someone else gets there first.

There are as many impurities as things happened on June 4th 1989 on Tiananmen Square 😉

They could reach this level of purity by sending all impurities to re-education camps. /s

This is fake news. Stop spreading lies.

- But this website you linked says nothing about Chinese hydrogen production.

- LMFAO mofo unironically links to US propaganda site 😂
