Hydrogen is a clean fuel that gives off water instead of carbon emissions when burnt, offering a sustainable alternative to conventionally used fossil fuels. There are some remaining hurdles to overcome to make hydrogen use commercially viable in the transport sector. New technologies and methods will be needed. Saudi Arabian oil company Aramco provides a […]
Reliance Industries’ Blue Hydrogen Plan Will Draw Investors, Say Top Brokerages – EQ Mag Pro
Reliance Industries Ltd.’s plan to repurpose its $4-billion (about Rs 30,000 crore) gasification assets for clean energy will offer the Mukesh Ambani-controlled conglomerate an opportunity to rope in more investors, according to analysts. India’s biggest company by market value will use syngas—a product of coal gasification—to make blue hydrogen at a competitive cost of $1.2-1.5 […]
Explained: What is the difference between Green, Blue and Grey Hydrogen? – EQ Mag Pro
Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe, making up over 90% of all atoms. Through this article, let us take a look at the three major types of Hydrogen– Green, Blue and Grey. Hydrogen makes up over 90% of all the atoms and is therefore rightly called the most abundant element in the […]
Is Green Hydrogen less sustainable than ‘dirtier’ Blue Hydrogen? – EQ Mag Pro
The cost of producing green hydrogen, the renewable fuel put forward to decarbonise the global economy, may be far more expensive than initially hoped. New research from Norwegian energy researcher Rystad Energy argues that for green hydrogen projects to be feasible, a new water desalination industry would have to be created. Green hydrogen projects are […]
Climate impact of blue hydrogen would be similar to green H2 if emissions were minimised: study – EQ Mag Pro
Reducing natural-gas leaks in the supply chain and increasing carbon capture rates would allow blue H2 to be a ‘bridging technology’, says global team of academics. Blue hydrogen : produced from natural gas with carbon capture and storage — can have a similar climate impact to renewable hydrogen, if two key requirements are met, according […]
Liebreich: ‘Blue hydrogen will be needed because green H2 alone will not be able to meet demand’ – EQ Mag Pro
Just replacing the current supply of grey hydrogen would require all the wind and solar capacity installed globally today, says influential analyst. Blue hydrogen will be needed in the coming years, despite its greenhouse gas emissions, because it will simply not be possible to meet H2 demand purely with green hydrogen, according to influential independent […]
Blue Hydrogen Backlash ‘Has Ring of Fracking Row’: Professor Defends Damning Study – EQ Mag Pro
Academic research ‘cautious and robust’ says co-author amid backlash he claims mirrors shale gas controversy a decade ago. The row over a damning study of the climate credentials of blue hydrogen mirrors a pushback against early critics of shale gas fracking a decade ago, claimed an academic involved in both controversies as he mounted a […]
‘Blue hydrogen production should be restricted due to associated emissions and high costs’
A new report from think-tank E3G sets out the case against H2 derived from fossil gas with CCS, arguing that referring to it as ‘low-carbon’ is misleading The production of blue hydrogen derived from fossil gas with carbon capture and storage (CCS) should be restricted due to the associated greenhouse gas emissions, high cost and […]
