E.On says it successfully ran a test on a German power to gas system in which wind powers hydrogen production for use in the natural gas system.
“Lower value” nighttime wind energy would be used to produce hydrogen under a plan that appears to be coming together in Minnesota.
Better, cheaper catalysts for electrolysis of water into hydrogen could pave the way for an energy storage breakthrough, a new paper asserts.
Blending hydrogen into natural gas pipelines could be a way to increase output from renewable energy production facilities, a U.S.-commissioned report says.
Audi is in on a project that will use wind power to make hydrogen, then convert the hydrogen into synthetic methane for use in cars on the natural gas grid.
The trend of using clean energy sources to create hydrogen continues, with Areva setting up a demonstration in Corsica that starts with solar power.
