Solid Hydrogen Explained (Again) - Is it the Future of Energy Storage?

Corrections: I've trimmed out a couple of sections from this video that misstated some facts about Plasma Kinetics and hydrogen production. I apologize for any confusion around this. As I mention in the video, I'm learning and trying to make each video better than the last. Thanks for the feedback. Near the end of last year I published a video on solid hydrogen storage and it got a lot of questions, critiques, and push back from some of you. In trying to simplify a pretty complex topic, I oversimplified some things, which created problems. So is solid hydrogen storage actually a thing? Is solid hydrogen currently being used? Let’s take another crack at solid hydrogen energy storage and try to address some of the shortcomings of my last video.Previous video on Solid Hydrogen, “Energy Storage Breakthrough - Solid Hydrogen Explained” - this video is now unlisted so it won't get served up by YouTube anymore, but I'm leaving it here as reference. There are some technical errors in the video. https://youtu.be/U7CCq4oBgw4Kurzgesagt "We Lied To You ...
