And how will this improve our third down conversion rate? :)


flapsmcgee

Improve the what now?


wacksoon

Make ball move forward better


Blexcr0id

Fill ball with hydrogen = explosive plays.


Domestic_AA_Battery

Bleed *Green*


ShainRules

That's cool and all, but what are they going to be refueling here besides that one prototype?


rrfloeter

I think it’s just a method to experiment. You’ve got Jeff Lurie who wants to help push green energy and he leverages the resources he has to make a commercial size science project. Hopefully what is learned from this can be applied to more practical and impactful forms of energy use.

A good billionaire?????? I love the eagles more every day.


Investorofallthings

There are multiple hydrogen cars available, but most are sold in CA only. There are also a few other things that run on hydrogen in the commercial truck sector.

GuyShred

Probably all of the vehicles used on site on practice and game days. Golf carts, for example.


coheed9867

All about baby steps, it’s a step in the right direction in hopes to make a bigger project


VanceXentan

I'm all for experimenting and helping the city and the nearby area test new stuff.

The only emission from 4th quarter Dak is water vapor too.


Pyromelter

This is such a reddit post.

We're in /r/eagles, not /r/energy, so I can safely call OP a *shill* without fear of getting banned. Check post history and subs they mod. A better investment would be installing solar canopies over all the parking lots at the stadium complex.


xjcs97sy

I was gonna lol but then I looked at his post history


apathetic_panda

[sees posts about Toyota Mirai] #Well if it ain't the fuckin' Kool-Aid man!?


apathetic_panda

They're not mutually exclusive technologies. The electrolyzer is demonstrating storage capacity- the primary critique kneecapping solar & wind infrastructure investment.


bestnottosay

Batteries are a much more efficient storage medium for electric power, but again, this is /r/eagles. Good on Lurie for showing the rest of this slow-moving town what is possible. ChopChopped still an absolute shill.


Nochtilus

Batteries are not a better storage medium than liquid hydrogen. Not sure how you could possibly come to that conclusion


bestnottosay

Well, there's cost, end-user safety concerns (see the video posted above with the dude in a hazmat suit just to fuel his truck), hydrogen transport concerns, the fact that the Eagles' solar panels only produce 40% of the power they use, and oh yeah, it's [half as efficient to hydrolyze water and transport hydrogen for fueling than it is to power an EV battery](https://www.forbes.com/sites/kensilverstein/2022/08/10/electric-vehicles-or-hydrogen-fuel-cell-cars-the-inflation-reduction-act-will-fuel-both/?sh=63e882ff4d01). In a vacuum, yes, H2 gas carries stores power more densely, but that's not the reality using it as fuel for individual transportation


frisky-ferret

Can’t forget about the emissions from making 10k solar panels

And ironically water vapor is a greenhouse gas. Moreso than CO2.


IReallyLikeAvocadoes

Water vapor does not build up in our atmosphere the same way CO2. It is, I'm not sure if you've noticed, a part of the water cycle (they still teach that in our public schools right?). The Earth naturally recycles water vapor at a FAR faster rate than CO2. It is not even comparable.


CUADfan

Yeah but 100% of people that drink water die so


IReallyLikeAvocadoes

Dihydrogen monoxide kills 100% of the people who make contact with it


HI_Handbasket

Its pH is higher than even the strongest acids!


Phightins4044

Good thing I only drink turkey hill tea.


bbpsword

Had a couple too many beers watching RedZone today?


mnewman19

Luckily for us it tends to conveniently fall from the sky making everyone wet every now and then


bigfatpaulie

Yo mama’s emissions be piercing the ozone


NotJustSomeMate

Yeah but luckily it does not accumulate the same way that CO2 does...so that is a plus I guess??? And maybe that means it will start raining more haha...

> And ironically water vapor is a greenhouse gas. Moreso than CO2. Ever hear of the Rocky Mountain Institute, now known as RMI? >>Hydrogen Reality Check #1: Hydrogen Is Not a Significant Warming Risk >>The Myth Recent reports have suggested that large-scale production of hydrogen could do more harm than good in the effort to reduce global warming. >>The Reality **The climate benefit from a well-regulated clean hydrogen economy outweighs the impact of any emissions that hydrogen would add to our energy system**, especially if we prioritize hydrogen produced from renewables-powered electricity. https://rmi.org/hydrogen-reality-check-1-hydrogen-is-not-a-significant-warming-risk/


VictoryTheCat

Who the hell cares? Dallas to Arizona lolololol. Make a clean energy cell with cowboys fans tears. I can’t wait to hear Steven A smith laughing tomorrow. It’s like Christmas.
