Green hydrogen – energy storage

carbon intensity of hydrogen

Carbon Intensity of Hydrogen

Green hydrogen may not be green. Blue hydrogen may be worse than other hydrogen colours if the methane gas has leaks. Depending on the source of methane, electricity the climate change emissions of hydrogen varies by source, electrolyser efficiency, carbon capture and storage efficiency. The life cycle analysis needs to be done on all hydrogen projects to see how they can reduce carbon emissions.

Hydrogen is a green house gas

Hydrogen is a Greenhouse Gas

Hydrogen itself is not a direct greenhouse gas, as it does not absorb infrared radiation. However, evidence suggests it acts as an indirect greenhouse gas. When released, it extends methane’s atmospheric lifetime, increases tropospheric ozone, and adds stratospheric water vapor, all of which contribute to warming. Studies estimate its 100-year Global Warming Potential at 11.6 ± 2.8.

Geologic or Gold hydrogen

Geologic or Gold Hydrogen

Geologic or gold hydrogen has potential to be part of the clean energy transition. Potential LCA and cost is low ($1kg), but there are technological and economic hurdles Co-production of helium with geologic hydrogen could be a key factor in making this technology commercially viable.
Research and development may determine the true potential of geologic hydrogen.

Hydrogen Bus Trials

Buses powered by Hydrogen are in the headlines – as the hydrogen industry try to muscle into the electric bus industry, With less than 0.1% of the global bus market – are they destined by by the BETA of tapes in 5 years?
