In late 2023, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced a $7 billion initiative to establish seven Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs, aiming to scale the use of cost-effective clean hydrogen. This initiative comes as utilities face growing pressures from data centers and other industries that are demanding increasingly large amounts of reliable power. Hydrogen’s role in helping utilities meet these...

Embracing Solar Power: Transforming Australian Homes for a Sustainable FutureGlobal average temperatures have been increasing dramatically over the last few years while the Paris agreement of 2016 between nearly every country on the planet attempted to set a two degree Celsius rise in temperature compared with preindustrial levels in order to mitigate the potential for extreme climate events to occur and...
National Grid had proposed a technology-neutral “electrification rate” that would have offered a discounted rate to high-volume electric consumers, whether the power demand was coming from an efficient heat pump, inefficient electric resistance heat, or even a pool heater. Environmental activists, advocates for low-income households, a solar industry group, the state energy department, and...

The $8 billion project, funded by ECL and financial partners, will be delivered in multiple phases. The initial phase of 50 MW is expected to come online in the summer of 2025 for...
While natural gas power accounted for 43% of total U.S. power generation in 2023, several state and federal policies aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions are bolstering interest in hydrogen cofiring. These policies include the Environmental Protection Agency’s recently finalized Carbon Pollution Standards, federal production tax credits, and the federal hydrogen hub program. However, only a...
