Host Ed Crooks brings you the first of two special episodes recorded live from Wood Mackenzie's Hydrogen ConferenceIndustry leaders and energy analysts gathered recently for the second annual hydrogen conference hosted by Wood Mackenzie, where they dissected the potential of hydrogen in the energy mix. Join host Ed Crooks in the first of two special episodes from the conference, with part two coming out tomorrow. The conference presented an opportunistic forum to discuss how hydrogen, with all its potential and challenges, can shape the course of a decarbonized energy industry. Hydrogen, once considered the energy of the future, has finally claimed its position in the present reality of decarbonized energy systems. Fuelling the global discourse on climate change, the conversation has shifted to the pivotal role that hydrogen and renewable energy solutions can play in the clean energy transition. Andy Lane, the Vice President of Hydrogen and Carbon capture in the UK for BP, spoke on a panel and emphasized the influence of China on the future of the renewable energy industry. Lane argued that China's ability to generate solar power and produce electrolyzers at a cheaper rate than most countries could instigate healthy competition that benefits everyone. He also highlighted that the renewable energy industry should not approach the global supply chain with a defensive mindset but rather learn to work effectively within it. However, Lane raised concerns about the potential threat this presents to European businesses, despite the overall positive impact on global warming reduction. What about those in the US? What impact is the IRA having? Rick Beuttel from Bloom Energy and Mona Bagat of KBR Consulting talk about the government incentives, the US' place in the low-carbon hydrogen race as well as the costs when it comes to Green and Blue Hydrogen production. This conference also provided an insight into technology leaders navigating the challenges of a rapidly evolving energy market. Ines Kraft from the German electrolyzer company, Sunfire, explained how they recently installed the world's first multi-megawatt high-temperature electrolyzer for green hydrogen production. The ongoing transformation of the energy industry - and the shift towards hydrogen as an essential part of that change - presents both challenges and opportunities for energy companies around the globe. The rising prominence of hydrogen will require concerted efforts to surmount obstacles related to costs, regulations, and infrastructure. Finally, we wrap up part 1 from the conference with Andre Pina from EDP Renewables discussing opportunities for an international market in hydrogen and its derivatives traded around the world. Don't forget part 2 from the conference is out tomorrow, subscribe so you don't miss an episode!

The 24th World Petroleum Congress (WPC) will be held in Calgary from September 17 to 21, 2023. The conference takes place every three years and has been described as the world's leading assembly for the petroleum industry. The organizers are expecting 15,000 visitors and 5,000 delegates from over 100 countries.  This week, we hear from Matthew Crocker, Senior Vice President, Product, Strategy and New Assets, for ExxonMobil's Low Carbon Solutions business. Matt, along with others from ExxonMobil will be at the WPC in Calgary.  Here are some of the questions Jackie and Peter asked Matt: ExxonMobil's Global Outlook projects oil and natural gas will still make up more than half the world's energy supply in 2050; why is ExxonMobil's view of oil and gas demand more than some other scenarios such as the IEA's Net Zero Emissions by 2050 (NZE)? Considering the amount of oil and natural gas demand in ExxonMobil's Global Outlook, do you think it is possible to keep long-term global warming to less than 2°C? What was ExxonMobil's intention for acquiring Denbury, a developer of CCUS solutions and enhanced oil recovery? What other investments is ExxonMobil making in CCS? Is ExxonMobil investing in biofuels? How is policy risk factored in when ExxonMobil makes low-carbon investments? Content referenced in this podcast:  The World Petroleum Congress registration information: https://www.24wpc.com/  ExxonMobil Global Outlook: Our view to 2050    Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/X (Twitter): @arcenergyinstLinkedIn: @ARC Energy Research InstituteSubscribe to ARC Energy Ideas PodcastApple PodcastsGoogle PodcastsAmazon MusicSpotify

Join the Council for a discussion examining current and future energy dynamics. As the structure of energy demand changes, with the importance of fossil fuels predicted to decline in the decades to come, how can energy production and delivery systems incorporate a growing share of renewable energy and manage increased electrification? Will the transition to a low-carbon world require a range of other energy sources and technologies, including low-carbon hydrogen, modern bioenergy, and carbon capture, use, and storage? What factors are most critical in shaping regional and global energy dynamics, and how might they shift in the years ahead? Explore these questions and more with Dr. Shihab Kuran, Mr. Phillip Cornell, and Mr. Colby Connelly. Visit www.ncusar.org for more information.

Robert Warren Howarth is a professor and earth system scientist at Cornell University (USA), and is also member of the Climate Action Council appointed by the State of New York. In 2021, Howarth and Stanford Professor Mark Z. Jacobson, stirred up controversy with their paper, "How Green is Blue Hydrogen?" Their study found that the production of blue hydrogen results in significant greenhouse gas emissions, both carbon dioxide and unburned fugitive methane, which is a major contributor to climate change. Even with carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology, the emissions associated with blue hydrogen are still substantial, argue Howarth and Jacobson. The peer-reviewed paper sparked a lot of reactions. Among others, researchers here at NTNU later published a Comment on “How green is blue hydrogen?”, questioning Howarth and Jacobson's methods for computing the energy balance of blue hydrogen plants, and saying the assumed methane leakage in the United States cannot represent all natural gas and blue hydrogen value chains globally. Has the dust now settled? We sat down and had a chat with Professor Robert W. Howarth, to find out. --- Next week, we are organizing the NTNU Energy Transition Week 2023 in Trondheim, Norway. The week features our annual conference, energy transition-related networking events, a town hall assembly, and expert-led workshops with different focus areas. Are you a young professional and want to accelerate the energy transition in Norway. If yes, then join me, Dr. Julius Wesche, on March 20th for the first face-to-face meeting of the Green Energy shifters network (www.greenenergyshifters.no).

As the World needs to decarbonize, Hydrogen gets often portrayed as an incredible solution. An energy carrier, 100% carbon-free to power the new nexus? Well, carbon-free, that's swiftly said. But is it true? Today, 98.7% of the world's hydrogen is produced from... fossil fuels. Which in turn, makes it a pretty carbon-intensive good. Hence, before using Hydrogen to decarbonize the World, we'll better first decarbonize... Hydrogen! Now, that also is faster said than done. From Blue to Green through Pink and Turquoise, Hydrogen exists in a Rainbow. But are all colors born equal? What's the one we shall bet on? Where shall we use hydrogen in the future? How? I started this investigation with a precious helper: BlueTech Research's insight report on the hydrogen economy. Along the way, I met with very knowledgeable experts, like Paul Martin, Alena Fargere, and Geoff Ward. These are the ones that will guide us in the Hydrogen Trilogy currently airing on the podcast! And if you watch the video version of this bonus episode, you'll get to know the 2011 version of myself

In this episode we return to Hydrogen with guest Erik Rakhou, Associate Director at Boston Consulting Group.  Low-carbon Hydrogen projects, policy support and predictions continue to dominate the news. So does the debate over its role in the energy transition, from power production to use as a fuel. What is the landscape today, the state of the debate and what will the future of Hydrogen be? What conditions will be needed? Where and how will low-carbon Hydrogen be deployed? Erik, together with co-editor Rosa Puentes, has gathered experts from around the world to publish a free to download book – Touching Hydrogen Future - that's gives us a sweeping view of the potential future hydrogen economy around the world in 2040, based on technological and policy support today. You can access to book here: https://europeangasmarket.eu. **Episode was recorded just prior to Erik joining. To find out more about HC and our talent advisory services in the energy & commodities sector visit www.hcgroup.global/hc-insiderTo connect with our host Paul Chapman, you can find him at www.linkedin.com/in/paulchapmanhc/

Decarbonization of transportation is a high priority in the battle to reach Paris Accord CO2 targets, but in heavy trucks and industrial power, there are few alternatives to fossil fuels with current technology. Cummins Inc., a large diesel engine maker, has developed a series of fuel agnostic diesel engines for commercial use that can run on diesel fuel, natural gas, or hydrogen gas. If run on blue hydrogen, CO2 emissions can be reduced or eliminated, and a new project at the world's largest oil refinery will demonstrate blue hydrogen with low-cost carbon capture. The Reliance Industries Jamnagar refinery in Gujarat, India, will make blue hydrogen from syngas production, part of a coke gasifier process. Reliance expects carbon capture at 30 percent of the cost of atmospheric capture.

We speak with two environmental resource experts about an effort to produce green energy in Louisiana. Adam Voshosted this Thursday's episode of Louisiana Considered. The Louisiana Department of Natural Resources' Patrick Courregesexplains the process of “carbon sequestration,” or removing carbon during chemical processing and pumping it underground instead of releasing it into the atmosphere. In October, industrial gas supplier Air Products announced a $4.5 billion facility will be built in the state incorporating carbon sequestration technology. The Deep South Center for Environmental Justice's Monique Hardenexplains why Air Products' plant may not be able to fulfill the company's promises, and how its effects could harm Louisiana communities.

Electrification is at the heart of the changing energy mix on the road to net zero, but it can only take the world so far. Heavy-duty industries like shipping and aviation will need fuel alternatives, and that's where hydrogen comes in. Hydrogen is a viable clean energy alternative, and countries are starting to prepare for global adoption. In this episode we examine the trends in the renewable energy market and what they mean for the future of energy. We'll look at how alternative fuels such as hydrogen will be utilised in the future, and we'll explore how hydrogen supply chains will need to be formed to supply the world.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I did an experiment in the classroom yesterday making some hydrogen and it was colourless,  but that isn't what the colours of hydrogen are all about. Most of all our hydrogen - a safe clean gas to burn for energy is called Brown Hydrogen, made from Fossils fuels and in the manufacture of this lots of Carbon and other toxic substances like sulfur are produced and typically these are left as pollutants into the air. So although you may be using a clean fuel - hydrogen - its manufacture certainly wasn't clean and green and efficient in any way.Blue Hydrogen is made in exactly the same way as the Brown Hydrogen, but some of the Carbon and Sulfur are recovered and stored, usually in the ground. The exact amount varies so some hydrogen made this way is very blue and some much less so.The last type of hydrogen is Green Hydrogen - made from the electrolysis of water using electricity from renewable sources - Wonderful - but it still isn't as Green as it could be because how much Greenhouse gases were using in the manufacture of the renewable energy machines and for the transport and storage of the hydrogen. Perhaps we should call this Cyan Hydrogen. Hydrogen is notoriously difficult to store as being a very small molecule it can escape a solid pipe and in some gas lines as much as 10% of the Hydrogen escapes.

When hurricane Ida struck the coast of Louisiana last weekend, almost to the day that Katrina did 16 years ago, comparisons between the two events were soon to follow. As the latest storm continues to wreak havoc and death further north in the US, Suzana Camargo of Columbia university talks to Roland Pease about the similarities and differences, the better forecasting available now, and the grim reality that climate change suggests for this and future hurricane seasons. A couple of weeks ago, Science in Action looked at the carbon accounting of Blue Hydrogen (hydrogen manufactured from fossil fuels). Listener Nick Arndt got in touch to say we were wrong when we stated that hydrogen can't be piped out of the ground from natural sources. His company, Sisprobe, plans to use its passive seismic prospecting technology to work with an international consortium that aims to unlock a new “hydrogen rush” – commercialising what they suspect to be a near-ubiquitous source of genuinely carbon-free fuel - to supply the world economy of the near future. Viacheslav Zgonnik - CEO of start-up Natural Hydrogen Energy LLC - has been working on hydrogen for 10 years, has written a recent review of the science, and tells Roland about current and future studies into finding the best way to tap this simplest of molecules before it escapes into space. In Chile, the recent megadrought has led to fears that hydroelectric damns may become so drained that power-outs may occur in the coming months. This will not help Chile to achieve its target of carbon-neutrality by 2050. Apt, then, that a new Concentrated Solar Power plant (CSP) is now up and running in the north of the country. Reporter Jane Chambers has been to visit Cerro Dominador – the spectacular new array of 10,600 mirrors that focus sunshine onto a molten salt target, heating it up to 560C, and generating up to 210 MW electricity. Meanwhile archaeologists have been doing a molecular analysis of a protein found to survive in the bones of unfortunate victims of the mount Vesuvius eruption that destroyed Pompeii. Despite the searing heat that killed inhabitants of nearby Herculaneum, Oliver Criag of York University has been able to examine the different isotopes in amino acids still recoverable from their bones to help identify what sorts of things these people ate during their tragically foreshortened lifetimes. A whole lot of cereals generally, but more interestingly, the men tended to eat more fish while the women seem to have consumed more meat and dairy. Our connection to the night sky spans cultures and millennia: observing the stars and planets helped our ancestors navigate the world, tell stories about the constellations, and understand our place in the universe. But these days, for the vast majority of us, seeing the stars is getting harder. 80% of people live under light polluted skies, and in many cities you're lucky to see a handful of stars at night. This state of affairs is bothering CrowdScience listener and keen stargazer Mo from Salt Lake City in the USA, who wonders if there's anything we can do about light pollution. Of course, we could simply turn out all the lights, but that's unrealistic. So what are smarter ways of lighting our communities to preserve our view of the cosmos? Increasingly worried by the effect of artificial lighting on the ability to observe stars, astronomer Dr Jason Pun set up a series of monitoring stations to continuously measure ‘sky glow'. By comparing sky glow across the world, he wants to figure out which approaches work best. One community taking an active approach is the South Downs National Park in South East England, one of a number of Dark Sky Reserves around the word. We visit the park and speak to the Dark Skies Officer there, to find out how people are coming together to turn down their lights and keep the night dark. And it's not just stargazing that's threatened by light pollution. Artificial light at night disrupts the circadian rhythms of wildlife. We visit a project in rural Germany looking into the benefits of dark-sky-friendly lighting on insect populations there. (Image credit: Scott Olson/Getty Images)

This week on H2TechTalk we are discussing “The Case for Blue Hydrogen,” a position paper published by the UK HFCA with Sam French, Director of Business Development for Johnson Matthey. French also provides insight on blue and green H2 developments and projects within the UK, and next steps in furthering the global deployment of H2.

In this episode the Rethink Energy Team discusses our new report into Concentrated Solar Power, the blue hydrogen greenwashing which may only just be beginning, and Chinese EV maker Xpeng's expansion into Norway.

Now that the 'bipartisan' infrastructure bill has passed the Senate, it is back to the House. This bipartisan scheme brags about its 'green' credentials, and features 'blue hydrogen.' Unfortunately, a new study published by Energy Science & Engineering discovered that the carbon footprint of blue hydrogen is heavier than previous fossil fuels.  This will be discussed in the context of the latest IPCC report which states that we may have crossed the threshold beyond which recovery is possible. In short, this is not the time to play the game of environmental 'incrementalism', yet that is exactly what we received in this bipartisan scheme. Let's end this greenwashing.  Come listen.  Jeanine

Prof. Bob Howarth of Cornell, a member of NYS Climate Action Council, has co-authored a study with Stanford Professor Mark Jacobson on the climate impact of "blue hydrogen" which utilizes carbon capture technology to reduce emissions. Yet due to the potent impact of methane and natural gas, the negative climate footprint is quite high. With Mark Dunlea for Hudson Mohawk Radio Network.

The Difference Between Green and Blue Hydrogen—and Why You Should Care. That story and more on H2O Radio's weekly news report about water. Headlines: As dire as the IPCC report is for the climate, there's an optimistic takeaway on how catastrophe can be avoided. "Blue Hydrogen" is promoted by the oil & gas industry as clean energy, but a new report says it's worse than burning coal. Wildfires raging across the western U.S. could affect the ability of clouds to produce rain. A new study links smoke from wildfires to higher rates of COVID-19 cases and deaths. Polar bears lob rocks at unsuspecting walruses.

Podcast: Redefining Energy (LS 48 · TOP 1% what is this?)Episode: 19. Hydrogen: broken promises (with Paul Martin) - feb20Pub date: 2020-02-15Gerard and Laurent invite Paul Martin to review the various development routes for Hydrogen, the forever “fuel of tomorrow”. Behind the smoke and mirrors of the current H2 PR blitz, are powerful incumbent industries looking for new markets.Unfortunately the laws of thermodynamics are not playing in favor of Hydrogen.The debate explores how Hydrogen is produced, and what are its best uses.Can "Green" Hydrogen ever compete with "Blue" Hydrogen? Is there any possible scaling of Electrolysers to reduce their price?As for its uses, Hydrogen for Ammonia, for Transportation and others are much trumpeted options. But can Hydrogen be cheaply moved? And what should government do? Subsidise or Tax?During an in-depth episode, we debunk myths and start providing sensible answers from an environmental and economic stand point.The podcast and artwork embedded on this page are from Laurent Segalen and Gerard Reid, which is the property of its owner and not affiliated with or endorsed by Listen Notes, Inc.
