And storage, strangely that safety topic never gets raised with nuclear. If we can build safe nuclear, we can build safe hydrogen storage

We can safely store nuclear waste. What do you think happens to all the radioactive waste produced by hospitals ?

True, if we have huge surplus of renewables, then the cost doesn't matter that much.

As per storage. Nuclear is far less problematic to handle in many aspects. Hydrogen is notoriously hard to store and if we go at scale, there would be massive amounts of hydrogen stored everywhere. A tiny spark away of a huge bomb.

If we can build safe nuclear, we can build safe hydrogen storage.

They're facing entirely different problems.
