Green hydrogen and green ammonia are touted as potential replacements for fossil fuels, but their actual environmental benefits are questionable. This fact sheet looks at the risks of hydrogen combustion.
Green hydrogen and green ammonia are touted as potential replacements for fossil fuels, but their actual environmental benefits are questionable. This fact sheet investigates the pros and cons of green ammonia.
This fact sheet evaluates the viability of hydrogen as a long duration energy storage (LDES) technology. It examines the costs, efficiency, infrastructure considerations, and potential harms of hydrogen power plants.
This fact sheet covers the inefficiencies of hydrogen liquefaction, on top of the existing inefficiencies of hydrogen production. It details the high costs, high energy consumption, losses due to evaporation, safety concerns, storage and transportation issues, and global warming impacts of hydrogen liquefaction.
This CEG report contains new analysis evaluating the feasibility of hydrogen power plants as long-duration energy storage resources, based on cost competitiveness as well as equity and environmental impacts.
Hydrogen is a colorless gas that can be produced through a wide range of methods using a variety of raw materials or “feedstocks,” such as coal, natural gas, and water. Different production processes for hydrogen gas result in distinct byproducts like carbon dioxide, solid carbon, and oxygen. These differing processes are often assigned a color,…
In these comments, CEG urges DOE to extend the deadline for comments on the proposed scope of the Environmental Impact Statement for the Appalachian Hydrogen Hub by another 60 days and lays out the ramifications of hydrogen energy.
In these comments, CEG urges DOE to extend the deadline for comments on the proposed scope of the Environmental Impact Statement for the California Hydrogen Hub by another 60 days and lays out the ramifications of hydrogen energy.
The Greenhouse gases, Regulated Emissions, and Energy use in Technologies (GREET) model is used to determine the lifecycle emissions of various energy sources, expressed as carbon equivalent emissions, and creates the framework for many monetary and market incentives related to energy production. In some cases, the values, assumptions, and calculations within each GREET model have…
The PEAK Coalition Public Comments on Draft New York State Energy Plan
The PEAK Coalition (UPROSE, The POINT CDC, New York City Environmental Justice Alliance, Clean Energy Group, and New York Lawyers for the Public Interest) submitted comments to the New York State Energy Planning Board about their Draft State Energy Plan. The comments convey deep concern for the Draft Energy Plan’s heavy reliance on expensive and…
