Hydrogen might be interesting, and it may work in some instances/industries but it is very unlikely to work in others.
Makes absolutely no sense. It is like saying 'Milk will work in some recopies [that call for it] but it is unlikely to work in others [that do not use milk]." So let's stop all milk production.
You must be posting for an American audience. Americans fall for that Republi-logic.
For those unfamiliar with the chemistry, ammonia is just hydrogen and nitrogen, no carbon or oxygen at all.
The trick to transporting hydrogen is to transport it as ammonia.
"Northwestern University researchers have developed a highly effective, environmentally friendly method for converting ammonia into hydrogen. Outlined in a recent publication in the journal Joule, the new technique is a major step forward for enabling a zero-pollution, hydrogen-fueled economy.
"The idea of using ammonia as a carrier for hydrogen delivery has gained traction in recent years because ammonia is much easier to liquify than hydrogen and is therefore much easier to store and transport. Northwestern’s technological breakthrough overcomes several existing barriers to the production of clean hydrogen from ammonia."

You obviously did not read that part about Germany, Korea, Japan taking al the hydrogen we can produce.
We pump far more oil and natural gas out of the ground than Canada will EVER use in domestic consumption. Whatever do we do with all the excess?
Hah, you're right.Let's just keep destgroying our climate and environment by doing things the way we always have.
Let other nations develop the technology and become strong, while we just become weaker and weaker.
Hey, maybe that is really what you want?
Hydrogen is not just a fuel, it is important in many chemical and manufacturing processes.
Methinks your cynicism comes from a lack of knowledge.
Or a deliberate attempt to discourage Canada from developing our hydrogen infrastructure long enough for the US to attempt to sweep it out from under us.
But that is my cynicism.
I read the article. Did you? A bad credit rating did not take the account to zero. Poor credit history did not take the account to zero. Bad debt did not take the account to zero. An accounting mistake, or inaccurate credit information did not take the account to zero. Not paying bills on time did not take the account to zero. Defaulting on a loan or credit card did not take the account to zero. A court judgement did not take the credit rating to zero.
The fact that there was NO credit transactions at all, good OR bad, in two years meant the account was deemed 'unscoreable' - not good, not bad, not horrible, but non-existent. Absolutely no reportable data to form a credit rating on, for two years.

for the status of a mega-project in Saskatchewan.
"Southern Saskatchewan is entirely covered by the pervasive and thick Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin (WCSB), which directly overlies the crystalline Pre-Cambrian basement. The basement is the perceived source for naturally occurring hydrogen, especially where the basement rock has an ultramafic composition. There are a series of deep structures, including faults, allowing movement of gasses from the basement upwards into the WCSB. In addition to structures, a series of domes and arches add to the structural complexity of the WCSB. Natural Hydrogen migrates upward into certain geological formations where it can accumulate."
There are time limits built in to the algorithm for calculating your score, that are there because of the agencies themselves and by legislation. Even the negative effects of a bankruptcy completely clear after a given amount of time. One suspects, in fact, if this person DID have negative factors affecting their credit, it would not have been reset to zero. There would have been a timer clicking away to keep feeding the account algorithm with fresh data.
Scary, reading some of the posts herein, how some people (many?) have absolutely no idea how credit reporting agencies or your credit score actually work. The term 'clueless' comes to mind.
Your response to my post makes absolutely no sense, unless you are a chatbot. My post has nothing to do with credit or a credit report, it has to do with a glitch in the coding of Lemmy itself. Two identical posts - posted at the same time by the same person using exactly the same URL and heading.
It never goes to zero because of bad debt. Even bankruptcy will never take it to zero. There is something very remiss about the 'facts' that you are trying to convince us are true.
They are buying from the Maritime provinces, Newfoundland in particular, and it is all from wind, solar, and water power. Particularly electrolysis of water. None of the hydrogen is coming from fossil fuels. Read my links, stop flapping off to me unless you read the links. I did not ever say anything about it coming from fossil fuels, and neither did the links.
Canada has an overabundance of very cheap non-fossil-fuel sources of energy, so we can economically convert this abundant energy to hydrogen (ammonia) and export it. Better to export our excess electricity to Europe (via ammonia) than let the ungrateful Americans have it.
No matter how clear you try to be, it will always come out murky. You are o the wrong side of the arguement.
