Yeah, to be fair it does have other uses—like you can use the fischer-tropsch process to make liquid fuels, and you can also manufacture synthetic natural gas with it, which I’m assuming is what Germany is intending to do with it.

It just depends on a lot of shit with regards to your energy mix and what your end users can utilize, Germany I’m guessing has a large user base that have homes equipped for NG, and taking a loss on EROI for manufacture might be economically or politically viable so grandma doesn’t freeze, especially since citizens aren’t going to install green heating solutions overnight.
