Is Green Hydrogen the Solution?

When electricity from renewable sources is stored, the hydrogen produced is considered a renewable, or "green," power source.

General Motors is planning to have one of its Ohio power plants run completely on this electricity by 2030. More than $3 billion is going into the project. And in New York City, more than 500 apartments, a grocery store, a parking garage and even a school are already running on this energy. As more cities start using this renewable power, the companies producing it will likely see their stock prices skyrocket. And David Fessler has found one of the companies sure to profit. If you want to get in on this action, shares are trading for only $3 now... but that won't last for long. [Click here to reveal this powerful energy source... and the investing opportunity behind it.]( - Kaitlyn Hopkins, Assistant Managing Editor [ENERGY INVESTING]( Slowing Climate Change: Is Green Hydrogen the Secret? David Fessler | Engineering Strategist | The Oxford Club [Dave Fessler] We're about to enter a golden age for renewable energy investors. [Renewable energy sources]( are rapidly replacing fossil fuel energy sources, like coal and natural gas. But wind and solar can't be used as baseload sources. Both need some form of energy storage to smooth out their intermittencies. So utilities are now installing storage as quickly as they're integrating renewables into their distribution networks. Today, much of that is being handled by [lithium-ion]( and flow batteries. But there's another way to store electricity. I'm talking about liquefied hydrogen. Energy Storage Made Easy Hydrogen is one of the most abundant elements on Earth. And it's nonpolluting. That's because when you burn hydrogen, you get heat (energy) and water vapor. Nothing else. Even though it's abundant, hydrogen is almost always combined with other elements or compounds. That's where renewable energy comes in. Utilities and other renewable energy providers can store excess energy in the form of hydrogen gas. To produce it, excess electricity is run through an electrolyzer. This high-tech system splits water into hydrogen and oxygen. (This is called a power-to-hydrogen project.) The hydrogen produced can be stored in tanks. It can later be used to power a steam turbine connected to a generator. The generator can run whenever power is needed. This neatly solves the storage problem for solar and wind. No batteries are needed. Practical Applications Green hydrogen has other uses too. For one thing, it can be used to power hybrid electric vehicles. These cars contain an electric motor, a battery and a [hydrogen fuel cell](. When the battery gets low, the hydrogen fuel cell produces electricity to recharge the battery and power the car at the same time. A small hydrogen fuel cell can power a laptop computer. A big one can power a utility power station. Other applications include emergency power backup, portable power, material handling and transportation. Fuel cells operate at higher efficiencies (up to 60%) than combustion-based engines. The same efficiency gain is true for power plant-sized installations. Fuel cells have few moving parts and are very quiet in operation.

And you want a better way to generate RELIABLE extra income for retirement - regardless of your age, education or when you start... [You need to see this NOW...]( But lots of hydrogen is going to be needed to power all the new fuel cell applications. And that's going to come from electrolyzers. Not surprisingly, green hydrogen projects are popping up all over the place. And the benefits are endless. For example, the U.K. uses a tremendous amount of natural gas. In fact, natural gas is responsible for half of the country's total energy use. But now an experiment is underway to blend hydrogen and [natural gas]( together in a 1-4 ratio. The resulting gas produces fewer greenhouse gases. If the entire U.K. were running on this blended gas, it would be the equivalent of permanently parking 2.5 million cars. There are plenty of other applications emerging for hydrogen fuel cells. Think about medium- and heavy-duty commercial vehicles, transit buses, short- and long-haul trucks, and airport shuttle vans. Compared with a 260-kilowatt-hour electric truck battery, 25 kilograms of hydrogen offers twice the range. The truck's fuel system would be 10 times lighter than it is with a battery. It would also refuel up to 15 times faster than it does with a battery. This is all just the start. New hydrogen projects are being announced almost daily. Hydrogen-Powered Projects Talgo is a train manufacturer in Spain. It recently announced that it is building a green hydrogen-powered train. The Vittal-One is scheduled to hit the tracks in 2023. It will have an advanced drive system based on fuel cells. The train will also have a battery bank. This will be used to increase starting acceleration. These batteries will be recharged during train braking. This is known as regenerative braking. Another hydrogen blending project was announced not too long ago. Cummins (NYSE: CMI) and the gas division of Enbridge (NYSE: ENB) are developing a pilot project in Markham, Ontario. The two companies plan to inject hydrogen into the local natural gas network. When operational, it will serve 3,600 customers. I'm very excited about the investment prospects for the fast-moving [green hydrogen sector](. I'll continue to report on them here.
