Based on your expertise, what are advantages and disadvantages of producing H2 or CH4 from renewable sources (wind, PV etc)? I am mainly interested in collecting different points of view, e.g. local pollution, global climate mitigation, energy engineering and mitigation of peak demand, economic aspects, social impact, policies, quality and safety of the final product, regulatory barriers.

Hi
Please check the following work. It describes the process in details. I believe it will help you.

There are no miracles. In fact, there are two initial sources of so called "renewable" energy - solar and gravitational (Earth's rotation energy, for example). The whole question is how much waste will be allocated in the specific process of its fixation. For example, harvesting of "solar energy" produces a significant amount of waste (production of the elements themselves, copper conductors, heat, etc.). For strange reason, if the waste is concentrated in another place (where the elements are produced, for example), the technology of "solar energy" is considered to be "nature-friendly". As to the substance of the matter, the use of “conditionally renewable energy” to produce a source of non-renewable energy does not seem to me a reasonable idea. In addition, it should always be taken into account that any energy conversion has limited efficiency ...
Power-to-methane enables large scale deployment of intermittent power production. Storage of excess electricity produced by wind power and photovoltaics will be one of the main challenges during the years to come.
Here is my colleague who specializes in Power-t-X technologies Mahdi Fasihi. You will find various articles which may answer some of your questions.
Hi there,
Please check the following paper Energy and Economic Costs of Chemical Storage ( https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmech.2020.00021/full).
All the best,
