Yes, natural gas-fueled #MCFC fuel cells from FuelCell Energy are an option to power data centers.↙️
↘️But @FuelCell_Energy needs to accurately portray their carbon dioxide emissions!
↘️↘️$FCEL #CO2 emissions from molten carbonate are 10% higher than 2023 US grid average!

You can buy the cumulative power of human minds. The same technique that was able to differentiae ourselves from our animal brethren - civilization and knowledge.

Course, plenty of knowledge is dead end...but in the right hands, in an infinite world, most probably is something for someone.

The Yanmar guys should have been standing in front of the Toyota-branded hydrogen fuel cell forklift and Toyota-branded towable trailer, so we could see the Yanmar logo on their ISO container!!

I was wondering who might notice that...

My old website provider closed at midnight September 30, and I went live with my new provider when I woke up in the morning.

Bsky must have checked my status overnight, & threw that "Invalid Handle" error on keithdpatch.com . I've been verified since then⬇️

Ambri, the 2010 MIT spinout and liquid metal battery company that targeted long duration energy storage #LDES, is no more.

This is why the MIT startup ecosystem calls hard tech "hard tech."

Too often a gas cylinder's shutoff valve is thought to be "shut off" & the cylinder is then removed from service, while the valve continues leaking, and then the accumulated leaked hydrogen gas finds an ignition source...
