Transport of hydrogen over large distances is just not efficient, whether made from coal or renewables, due to energy involved and “boil-off”.
“In the case of hydrogen made from coal, like in the HESC project, the energy loss is 80% even before energy for carbon capture and storage (CCS) is considered.”
In situ use for ammonia & green metals is far more promising.
