Sean, your closing comments on the future of Hydrogen as an alternative to fossil fuels are widely disputed. With current technology hydrogen fails as a viable alternative fuel source due to fundamental inefficiencies and economic challenges. Its production is energy-intensive, with significant losses during electrolysis, compression, and transportation. While hydrogen initially seems promising, it requires more energy to produce than it generates, achieving only 38% efficiency compared to electric vehicles' 80%. The infrastructure is prohibitively expensive compared to electricity, with limited refueling stations and high production costs. Cost efficient ransportation of the smallest molecule is highly challenging if not practically impossible, and the pipe connecting your car to the hydrogen source often freezes on due to the low temperature of the hydrogen. Rare metals like iridium needed for fuel cells are in short supply, and most hydrogen production methods remain environmentally harmful. Battery electric vehicles consistently outperform hydrogen in cost, efficiency, and practicality, making hydrogen an impractical solution for sustainable transportation. Of course, this may change with evolving technology, but the basic physics of hydrogen production make electricity a better alternative for the foreseeable future.
Well inflation is down but prices are up how do you like the first round of fart tax hope you like 16 dollars for a pound of butter 20 per kg mince we have to pass it on enjoy you wanted this.
Is this not a good opportunity to change bank, yes its a pain in the ass but they are a shit bank anyway and this is what you wonted to do for years, LOL
BNZ wants to wind up all outstanding loans to petrol stations over the next six years to reduce or eliminate exposure to fossil fuel risk, CEO Dan Huggins told MPs. We’ve looked at our exposure to petrol stations and then we’ve looked at the long term future of those businesses, recognising that we expect conversion to electric vehicles to change demand for fuel services. Therefore, from a credit perspective, we’ve said, look, we have enough exposure in that space and don’t want to increase that exposure. Stuart Smith, Chairman of the Finance and Expenditure Committee (FEC), asked Huggins and BNZ Chairman Warwick Hunt about a Federated Farmers press release, which alleged the bank had a policy against new lending to petrol stations and were requiring existing debt to be paid off by 2030. Huggins said this was correct but it was because of the credit risk petrol stations could pose in the future, rather than being motivated by climate targets or policies.
They are full of b lsh t. There will be a lot of cars still requiring petrol in 2030, even in the unlikely event that there are no more sales of petrol or hybrid vehicles. And this case was that of a guy with a property investment which happens to be run by their tenant as a service station. There will always be value in property. And they will remain happy to take profits out of customers who still rely on ICE vehicles, which to be honest really is everybody. How do people think their EV was produced, got delivered to them, and how the electricity infrastucture was provided? With a hell of a lot of fossil fuel consumption, that is how. And that is going to be the case for a long time.
Using hydrogen as a fuel is like using energy to roll a ball up a hill so you can gain back a percentage of that energy when it rolls down. That is a lunatic proposition. Some very major things are going to have to change to make an arrangement like that economically and thermodynamically feasible. If Banks like the BNZ prefer acceptance in DEI circles rather than servicing their customers, it's time to make other arrangements.
Yeah! that's right Sean. Welcome to the farken AWAKENING You got off to a miserable start with 2020 the 201 Event But! we forgive you for being a late Boomer, I mean bloomer, you dirty BOOMER, Lo! 👍
I would be nervous about buying a petrol station these days. Over the next 5-10 years cars will mostly move to electricity, unless a better fuel is found. House owners will likely charge at home. If you disagree please feel free to go broke. People making wooden cart wheels had the same problem in the early 20th Century.
Highly doubt that. Where are you getting the electricty from, won't be from the National grid when we all get told we can't generate enough to keep the lights on. There is no dependable source.
@@alistermacpherson7120 A 50% drop in turnover would be a huge financial problem. Less profit means that a good percentage go broke. Even today it is possible to find someone to shoe your horse, but far less than 100 years ago. Petrol cars pretty much replaced cars in New York over a ten year period. If I have money in a bank, I would prefer that they were snivelling cowards.
@@Astrodoberman Houses and some businesses can already self supply. The machinery is getting cheaper. My current house was connected to the grid in 1993. The cost in today's dollars would have made it grid independent four or more times over, with no 3 monthly electricity bills.
I don't think it's just green bloody mindlessness on BNZ's part, there's some commercial sense behind it. Where I live in urban Auckland my guess is about 5% of the observed fleet is fully electric. My guess would be that another 3% are plug-ins and a whopping 8%+ are economical hybrids. My wife and I have just replaced our petrol cars with hybrids achieving 5L/100km or even less. So BNZ are reading the tea leaves that we are looking at an approximate 15% reduction in petrol sales now and a growing trend into the future. This obviously means a reduction in sales and profits as the retail fuel industry is forced to rationalize.
Electric cars are a scam. You are now dealing in child labour digging out these precious metals to use in your batteries in countries hard done by. There's more harm to the environment this way, because these batteries are toxic, than using oil and gas. Not to mention that these precious metals fall far short of running an automotive industry. But fret not, the electric scam is only a decoy. What they really want is for us to take public transport and for us to bicycle. So welcome to fifteen minute cities. Ever seen hunger games. We'll all soon will.
the other side of the same tea leaves, it shows a change back to diesel and petrol as being more reliable and less problematic with failing batteries and insufficient imported Indonesian coal fired power stations to recharge power grid with an even bigger carbon footprint than current conventional fuel. Not to mention the toxic disposal of colossal dead batteries and inconvenience of short recharging distances which are a pain adding hours onto a long trip. Vegan Virtue signallers have been sold a lie and on-selling it in the bnz bored rooms.
i love my 5 litre 480hp lexus .. love doing 5km / litre ... i pay the petrol bill so it's no ones business .. i wonder if you understand the petrol used in making ALL the parts for a EV or hybrid .. plus realistic life of these cars and costs at the later stages of car life ,, as if our pathetic emissions nz puts out makes any differance to their climate ' truth ' .. total BS

With current technology hydrogen fails as a viable alternative fuel source due to fundamental inefficiencies and economic challenges. Its production is energy-intensive, with significant losses during electrolysis, compression, and transportation. While hydrogen initially seems promising, it requires more energy to produce than it generates, achieving only 38% efficiency compared to electric vehicles' 80%. The infrastructure is prohibitively expensive compared to electricity, with limited refueling stations and high production costs. Cost efficient ransportation of the smallest molecule is highly challenging if not practically impossible, and the pipe connecting your car to the hydrogen source often freezes on due to the low temperature of the hydrogen. Rare metals like iridium needed for fuel cells are in short supply, and most hydrogen production methods remain environmentally harmful. Battery electric vehicles consistently outperform hydrogen in cost, efficiency, and practicality, making hydrogen an impractical solution for sustainable transportation. Of course, this may change with evolving technology, but the basic physics of hydrogen production make electricity a better alternative for the foreseeable future.
Bnz have the right to
No big deal
Until they de-bank you.
@@mrsilwood2578 it's not bnz. It's the government
They give you an umbrella when it is sunny and take it away when it is raining
Where you their when Ari Vatanan, Walter Röhrl, Stig Blomqvist, Hannu Mikkola and Michelle Mouton came through from Warkworth?
...there...
whos choice is it- been spoilt all this time big business rules no matter what industry and you cant do shit about it.
Well inflation is down but prices are up how do you like the first round of fart tax hope you like 16 dollars for a pound of butter 20 per kg mince we have to pass it on enjoy you wanted this.
so is it time all kiwis joined together and switch to kiwi bank, and support our country? I'm with BNZ but now re thinking seriously.
Is this not a good opportunity to change bank, yes its a pain in the ass but they are a shit bank anyway and this is what you wonted to do for years, LOL
BNZ wants to wind up all outstanding loans to petrol stations over the next six years to reduce or eliminate exposure to fossil fuel risk, CEO Dan Huggins told MPs. We’ve looked at our exposure to petrol stations and then we’ve looked at the long term future of those businesses, recognising that we expect conversion to electric vehicles to change demand for fuel services.
Therefore, from a credit perspective, we’ve said, look, we have enough exposure in that space and don’t want to increase that exposure.
Stuart Smith, Chairman of the Finance and Expenditure Committee (FEC), asked Huggins and BNZ Chairman Warwick Hunt about a Federated Farmers press release, which alleged the bank had a policy against new lending to petrol stations and were requiring existing debt to be paid off by 2030.
Huggins said this was correct but it was because of the credit risk petrol stations could pose in the future, rather than being motivated by climate targets or policies.
They are full of b lsh t. There will be a lot of cars still requiring petrol in 2030, even in the unlikely event that there are no more sales of petrol or hybrid vehicles. And this case was that of a guy with a property investment which happens to be run by their tenant as a service station. There will always be value in property. And they will remain happy to take profits out of customers who still rely on ICE vehicles, which to be honest really is everybody. How do people think their EV was produced, got delivered to them, and how the electricity infrastucture was provided? With a hell of a lot of fossil fuel consumption, that is how. And that is going to be the case for a long time.
Using hydrogen as a fuel is like using energy to roll a ball up a hill so you can gain back a percentage of that energy when it rolls down. That is a lunatic proposition.
Some very major things are going to have to change to make an arrangement like that economically and thermodynamically feasible.
If Banks like the BNZ prefer acceptance in DEI circles rather than servicing their customers, it's time to make other arrangements.

Man made fuel is already a thing. F1 has been working on it.
Yeah! that's right Sean. Welcome to the farken AWAKENING
You got off to a miserable start with 2020 the 201 Event
But! we forgive you for being a late Boomer, I mean bloomer,
you dirty BOOMER, Lo!
👍
I would be nervous about buying a petrol station these days. Over the next 5-10 years cars will mostly move to electricity, unless a better fuel is found. House owners will likely charge at home.
If you disagree please feel free to go broke. People making wooden cart wheels had the same problem in the early 20th Century.
I think you are getting ahead of yourself,yes eventually but not quite as quickly as you believe
Highly doubt that. Where are you getting the electricty from, won't be from the National grid when we all get told we can't generate enough to keep the lights on. There is no dependable source.
@@alistermacpherson7120 A 50% drop in turnover would be a huge financial problem. Less profit means that a good percentage go broke. Even today it is possible to find someone to shoe your horse, but far less than 100 years ago. Petrol cars pretty much replaced cars in New York over a ten year period. If I have money in a bank, I would prefer that they were snivelling cowards.
@@Astrodoberman Houses and some businesses can already self supply. The machinery is getting cheaper. My current house was connected to the grid in 1993. The cost in today's dollars would have made it grid independent four or more times over, with no 3 monthly electricity bills.
I don't think it's just green bloody mindlessness on BNZ's part, there's some commercial sense behind it. Where I live in urban Auckland my guess is about 5% of the observed fleet is fully electric. My guess would be that another 3% are plug-ins and a whopping 8%+ are economical hybrids. My wife and I have just replaced our petrol cars with hybrids achieving 5L/100km or even less. So BNZ are reading the tea leaves that we are looking at an approximate 15% reduction in petrol sales now and a growing trend into the future. This obviously means a reduction in sales and profits as the retail fuel industry is forced to rationalize.
Bit hypocritical having a Hybrid Car. Good luck with your Battery range when they decide to shut down Petrol stations.
Electric cars are a scam. You are now dealing in child labour digging out these precious metals to use in your batteries in countries hard done by. There's more harm to the environment this way, because these batteries are toxic, than using oil and gas. Not to mention that these precious metals fall far short of running an automotive industry. But fret not, the electric scam is only a decoy. What they really want is for us to take public transport and for us to bicycle. So welcome to fifteen minute cities. Ever seen hunger games. We'll all soon will.
5l/100km until you have to replace the hybrid battery and then that goes to pot aswell as mad depreciation on anything even slightly hybrid or EV.
the other side of the same tea leaves, it shows a change back to diesel and petrol as being more reliable and less problematic with failing batteries and insufficient imported Indonesian coal fired power stations to recharge power grid with an even bigger carbon footprint than current conventional fuel. Not to mention the toxic disposal of colossal dead batteries and inconvenience of short recharging distances which are a pain adding hours onto a long trip. Vegan Virtue signallers have been sold a lie and on-selling it in the bnz bored rooms.
i love my 5 litre 480hp lexus .. love doing 5km / litre ... i pay the petrol bill so it's no ones business .. i wonder if you understand the petrol used in making ALL the parts for a EV or hybrid .. plus realistic life of these cars and costs at the later stages of car life ,, as if our pathetic emissions nz puts out makes any differance to their climate ' truth ' .. total BS

It's NOT a fossil it's a mineral that is produced by the planet.
Battery operated vehicles batteries only have a short lifespan and they are expensive to replace according to experts
Tell them to get stuffed, change bank..
