"Maritime shipping is considered one of the hard to abate sectors, but it's
much less difficult than most assume. As we've seen in this series on
electrifying everything everywhere all at once, bulk shipping will plummet with
peak fossil fuel demand and batteries will power all inland and most short sea
shipping.

But we'll still need in the order of 70 million tons of marine diesel
equivalent energy at the end of this transition. What will it be? Naturally,
the hydrogen-for-energy crowd are pointing at their favorite molecule and
derivatives of it. For this piece, let's focus just on hydrogen itself.

What are the half truths about hydrogen, and how do they apply to maritime
shipping?"
