Conversation about using electrolysis to store electrical energy

This is a conversation I had over messenger with a friend Tony Kirwan about the possibility of using electrolysis to store electrical energy. Did you know electrolysis is an 80% efficient method of storing electrical power I'm thinking airships to ship electricity/hydrogen from Sahara desert they got a bad name in world war 1 cos easy to shoot down and a natural gas container will store hydrogen at 250psi which ain't half bad. Drones can deliver hydrogen to car in open field and fly wherever wind takes them. A reasonable pressure to compress hydrogen is 250 bar Look at Google project loon R u interested? I Must take a look at project loon. 👍 But why fly hydrogen from Sahara? Solar panels and wind turbines on Irish coast could turn salty sea water to hydrogen with electrolysis. 👍 My boss Jose was harvesting more solar than he could use in Spain and had to pay to put it back into grid! I Googled solar in Ireland is 70% as effective as Spain not bad Hydrogen burns in u...
