Fukushima powers up on of the world's biggest hydrogen plants 2020 Mar 08 NewsOnJapan.com www.newsonjapan.com/html/newsdesk/article/126520.phpNameplate 20 megawatts of solar panels to produce enough hydrogen, not gas, for 560 fuel cell vehicles per excellent sunshine day. Just a demonstrator.

Water splitting advance holds promise for affordable renewable energy 2020 Mar 09 Phys.org m.techxplore.com/news/2020-03-advance-renewable-energy.htmlMuch better catalyst to obtain hydrogen via electrolysis. Development at Washington State University, where I taught, and at Los Alamos National Laboratory, where I went to high school and earlier grades. Anyway, this ought to work.

I never hate the damned viglink redirects more than when I have to hand-edit the insecure URL to get rid of the tracking crap so I don't get possibly-poisoned pages.

engineer poet-- Your comment was blunt but very informative. Is the link, in your opinion, a disservice to readers? If so I'll zap it.

I have blocked the redirector/spying site at the host name resolution level and now I copy the link text and paste it rather than clicking. The block prevents any accidental clickings from leaking information or sending me to unwanted/poisoned pages. Someday I may learn enough about Greasemonkey to automagically remove such redirects, but at this point it looks like I'll never have the time. Too much else to do.

Thanks, DBB. The links do work, but they redirect through Viglink to monetize the connection. Apparently, because this site is http and not https (secure), the links are potentially vulnerable. EP has done us a service by pointing this out.
Update (about 2 days later): After a little digging, I've found that ProBoards has converted to https; and that VigLink, on reputable sites such as the BNC Forum, should not be much of a security problem.

I doubt it. I have heard of similar schemes and similar grand claims for decades, yet it never seems to get out of the lab. What gives?

I doubt it. ... What gives? The algae schemes I have seen require too much processing. This method does not. All these biological methods require considerable area and for algae in particular, quite a bit of attention. So this may founder for that reason as well. But it appears to be an efficient use of sunlight.

Actually algae are pretty efficient already at making lipids from sunlight. Yet they couldn’t compete with oil even at $200/bbl.
What matters most, is cost. Any reliable $/kg H2 figures?
