I say bugger all this high pressure bottling! Pipe it up and put it through a (modded) diesel genset if that's all you have!
(You need to 'retard the timing' and turbo n stuff at high concentrations)

Especially if you can use the heat..! Engines become waaay! more efficient if you're heating your house and hot water.
With big gensets one could warm/farm dairy, poultry, piggery and veg etc, in normally 'too cold' areas.
(Yes I do see a glasshouse full of Bud in Siberia or somewhere! )

Put a vid on YouTube and someone will come running with a fuel cell too!
