    Green hydrogen via electrolysis of seawater without desalination? That actually sounds quite impressive.

    The technology costs as little as 11.2 yuan (US$1.57) per kilogram (2.2 pounds) of hydrogen – much less than the current mainstream cost of hydrogen production from natural gas, which ranges from 20 to 24 yuan per kilogram.

    This sounds too good to be true! I wonder how it compares to other fuel-equivalents…

      A lot of this just comes down to economies of scale, we saw similar stuff happen with solar power where cost dropped dramatically once China started mass production of panels.
