I'm still trying to understand your definition of timeshifting. Is timeshifting referring to energy being transfered to a different storage medium for later use (in your example, converting electricity + water to hydrogen)? If that is the case, any battery is a timeshifting device. Pushing a bolder to the top of a hill would be an act of timeshifting.

What on earth is your definition of timeshifting? The production of Hydrogen consumes a lot of energy. Currently the primary energy used in the production of hydrogen is fossile fuels. Hydrogen is an excellent way to store and transfer energy to automobiles or other energy consuming items that can not be plugged in.

One of the current guests keeps pronouncing neclear as "nucular". What kind of "expert" in neclear technologies can not pronounce the word that they are an expert of?
