Claims

The U.S. SPR cannot be run down to zero because the bottom of these giant caverns contains sludge of unknown depth and composition that is likely unusable, creating a hard floor on usable reserves and preventing complete depletion despite crisis demand.

Delivering hydrogen to filling stations requires 18 tube trailers at 700 bar pressure to carry the energy equivalent of one standard 44-ton diesel fuel tanker, making daily refueling of filling stations economically impossible (1 diesel tanker per day becomes 18 hydrogen trailers per day) and demonstrating why hydrogen infrastructure is fundamentally non-viable.
