Building a hydrogen-based energy system in the U.S., which some analysts call key to fighting climate change, would be based largely on fossil fuels under the bipartisan infrastructure bill heading for a Senate vote. The legislation provides for $8 billion in spending to establish at least four “regional clean hydrogen hubs” producing and using the […]
Giga-scale green hydrogen: ‘Developers are being unrealistic about levelized costs’
August 4, 2021
Recent announcements such as the $70bn, 28GW Western Green Energy Hub in Australia, the 15GW Oman project or the relatively meagre 4GW Helios project in Saudi Arabia and HNH in Chile have captured the headlines but there is one interesting point they all have in common. Each project’s estimated levelised cost of hydrogen works out […]
AI company studies distributed green hydrogen for fleet decarbonization
August 4, 2021
Artificial Intelligence company Empati has commissioned Black & Veatch to study the feasibility of using distributed production of green hydrogen to fuel vehicle fleets. The company says that hydrogen is a proven vehicle fuel and that green hydrogen offers fleet operators a route to achieving decarbonisation targets.
