And the vast majority of electricity is made from fossil fuels too. And that figure was far higher when BEVs got started.

This is simply a lazy troll argument, and literally a repeat of old anti-BEV arguments.

So where's the renewable hydrogen?
It is coming online as we speak. You are just not aware of it. This mirrors the early days of wind and solar power.
So where is it? Make us aware of it. Give us volumes and prices. And stop saying "troll argument", that's not an argument.
Do you seriously want me to list all of the hundreds of different projects all going up right now? There are a huge range of figures too, and not everything is announced in detail yet.

FYI, the figures are well into the hundreds of billions of dollars of total investment. It is a repeat of wind and solar, and the naysayers are just concern trolling or even outright denying its existence.

No, but we want you to list some of them. You're making the claim; back it up.

The more it's happening, the easier that request should be.

(And, after being told that "troll" is not a valid argument, immediately returning to "troll" is not a good look. It makes it appear that you don't have anything else.)

The list is basically the news: https://www.google.com/search?q=green+hydrogen&tbm=nws&sa=X&...

The facts are so far into the realm of "it's already happening now" that what you're asking is akin to demanding proof that Russia is at war with Ukraine right now.
