Germany Builds First Hydrogen Power Plant

2 x 2MW wind turbines

Electrolyser

Compressor

Storage for 1.350 kg of hydrogen

When you are thinking, this can't possibly work, there are two two 340 kW combined heat and power units running on wood from neighboring sawmill.

This is similar power plant running in Dortmund (sans windmills and hydrogen).

This is fine at all, but when we propose 1 GW of electricity dispersed at 1400 power plants, costing 30 billion Euro in China we will get laugh at. In Tanzania (where whole country's budget is less than 3 billion Euro) they will die from laughter.

BTW, electrolyser produces equivalent of 20, maybe 30 kg of oil running at maximal power.

AFAIK, in Germany fuel cell capable of storing so much hydrogen and compressor for it costs about 1 million dollar (600 000 Euro). So don't dream about hydrogen powered cars.
