On-site Hydrogen Generation Making Its Way To A Powerplant Near You

A recent blog post discussed a new hydrogen generation technology that converted natural gas or methane into hydrogen fuel. The on-site hydrogen generator could just as easily be used to convert methane from decomposing biomass into hydrogen.

According to many experts,, this is the holy grail for renewable power. It will be able to generate hydrogen cost-effectively for fuel cell vehicles but also for class-8 trucks and even power plants.

Modern Electron pyrolysis technologies use existing natural gas distribution networks to deliver methane where clean hydrogen is needed.

This distributed technology splits carbon from methane gas at the application location and delivers clean hydrogen with no associated CO2. This technology lends itself to various industrial, commercial, and high-density residential use cases where low carbon intensity is prioritized and operations teams don’t want to deal with the logistics complexities associated with hydrogen deliveries.

While future class-8 truck and vehicle fueling stations could be running on hydrogen, the most immediate use cases for hydrogen are in industrial and commercial applications. This article will explore the essential hydrogen use case as a cooling agent in power plants.
