In practice, we could sever the connection between EU internet and the rest of the internet.

Maybe whitelist a set of ideas that are allowed to pass through the great eu firewall.

it's already way too expensive.

If you don't account for the storage problem, renewables look like a cheap solution, indeed. And you end up with renewables + huge reliance on fossil fuel.

This is an ideal scenario for the fossil industry.

We're like five years into an energy revolution

Exactly, after working on it for over 30.

It seems like theyre not even planning on going fossil free.

That quote, again, not mentioning stored energy. How do they not understand that storage needs to be specified in both power and energy?

What you think is characteristics of a personality, might be symptoms of abuse.

Hydrogen, in one form or another, is the answer to all of those things

No it isn't? What makes steel steel is the carbon inbetween Fe.

Green hydrogen has been promised to me my whole life. Sad to day I now understand your point of view. Natural gas wins.

It took me 30 years to learn I've CPTSD.

Already happening, on a small (but industrial) scale.

I mean, isn't that the problem with all storage technologies?

Is the goal of renewables to do 90% of the year with renewables, and 10% of the year with fossil fuel?

Hopefully one day, the last 10% is "green hydrogen", "syngas", "synpetrol"? That's how the intermittancy problem is "solved"?
