How do we get there?

Today, humans depend on immense amounts of fossil fuels to power nearly
everything we do. We’ll need to deploy a big toolkit of clean energy solutions to
reach zero emissions and combat climate change. Countries over the world
agree – green hydrogen is a key energy source to address hard-to
decarbonize sectors.

What is Green Hydrogen?

Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe, has been safely used for decades in industrial applications such as semiconductor manufacturing, fertilizer production, oil refining, with over 94 million tonnes consumed each year around the world. To date, the vast majority of hydrogen used in industrial applications has been produced from fossil fuels. Today, GH2 can be made from renewable resources like wind, solar, and biomass and can replace fossil fuels in some of the heaviest polluting and hardest-to-electrify sectors, such as:

Green Hydrogen: A Key Resource in
the Clean Energy Transition

Green Hydrogen’s Role to Reduce Emissions in the Port of LA and Long Beach

The combined ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach make up the single largest fixed source of air pollution in Southern California, according to the South Coast Air Quality Management District. Fenix Marine Services is one innovator that has been leading the way on integrating green hydrogen usage in its heavy-duty equipment operations, which will help reduce their reliance on fossil fuels. See how.

Technology to produce, store and transport, and
use hydrogen is commercially available today

A key obstacle to greater adoption of GH2 is that it is more expensive than fossil
fuels. Working together, we can find ways to produce, store and transport GH2
so that it is cost-competitive with fossil fuels.

A key obstacle to greater adoption of GH2 is that it is more expensive than fossil fuels. Working together, we can find ways to produce, store and transport GH2 so that it is cost-competitive with fossil fuels.

Produce

Green hydrogen can be made from renewable energy sources and water (a process called electrolysis), or directly from other organic feedstocks (e.g., food waste, or biomass yielded from forest management

Store and Transport

The hydrogen gas can be stored as a compressed gas or a liquid, or it can be bonded with another element to be stored in a solid state. On a local level, hydrogen is often stored within tanks. On a larger scale, hydrogen can be stored underground in salt caverns (3 commercial salt caverns are already under operation in the U.S. today). Today, hydrogen is commonly transported via truck. Pipelines are the most cost-effective solution to transport large volumes of GH2, especially where end users are located in clustered locations (ex: a port). This technology has been safely under operation for decades. Today, the US already has already 1,600 miles of dedicated hydrogen pipeline in operation.

Use

The hydrogen is then converted to energy. Hydrogen is commonly used within fuel cells, which produce electricity without burning (combusting) the fuel. In larger scale or higher heat applications, hydrogen can be combusted to provide a carbon-free alternative to fossil fuels. In other applications, such as fertilizer production, green hydrogen can simply be swapped for the grey hydrogen already used today.Experts anticipate that as the cost of green hydrogen decreases, the demand for green hydrogen in place of fossil fuels will increase.

Tailpipe emissions from burning gasoline and diesel fuel are the most significant sources of air pollutants (particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and volatile organic compounds) in the United States. Green hydrogen can replace fossil fuels in hard-to-electrify mobility applications, leading to significant air quality and public health improvements.

Wind and solar are the low-cost sources of renewable electricity that should be widely deployed to help decarbonize the electrical grid. However, studies across multiple states have demonstrated the need for resources that power the grid when the sun is not shining, and the wind is not blowing. Production of GH2 creates the opportunity to capture wind and solar and store it for weeks, months, and even seasons to be used when needed.

Establishing a green hydrogen economy will create hundreds of thousands diversely skilled, family-sustaining jobs across the country. Many of these jobs are similar to existing fossil fuel industry jobs, creating strong opportunities for fossil fuel workers to transition and participate in the clean energy future.

These organizations agree: GH2 is an essential tool to achieve deep decarbonization and end our dependence on fossil fuels.
