Fascinating. Possibilities for a new type tow car maybe?

Wow - is someone really doing this? It seems astonishing to me that anyone would look at hydrogen for combustion, and steam generation in particular as any kind of efficient solution.Fascinating. Possibilities for a new type tow car maybe?

Just like it is astonishing that anyone would look at battery powered vehicles? Technology is moving at a rapid pace. Hydrogen in the future may use a lot less fossil fuel than is currently being used to power units.Wow - is someone really doing this? It seems astonishing to me that anyone would look at hydrogen for combustion, and steam generation in particular as any kind of efficient solution.
Does the 50% efficiency of the turbine include losses in burning the hydrogen to generate steam? I.e. is it the efficiency of the fuel to electricity, or dry steam to electricity? I have no idea 🤷♂️Traditional reciprocating large steam engines might achieve 25% efficiency, but steam turbines typically reach 40% but in special circumstances might achieve up to 50%.
