By [email protected] Green hydrogen is both an untested and a potentially vital way for renewable-energy-powered grids to store their intermittent power for later use, not just for hours at a time, but for days, weeks or even seasons ahead. Most of the early-stage work on hydrogen’s grid storage potential is happening in Europe and Asia,…
By [email protected] The energy transition isn’t just sounding the death knell for fossil fuels. According to some experts, it has also revealed flaws in an idea that has bugged some academics for decades: As we move to less energy-dense fuels, could we end up without enough surplus for society? At the heart of this debate…

By Xavier Moreau In discussions and articles about electric vehicles (EVs) that could both charge and discharge their battery, I often see the assumption that if a vehicle can back-feed electricity into the grid it can also be used as a back-up power source. Well, this is far from automatic. In Vehicle-to-grid (V2G), vehicles exchange…
By Rauf Fattakh 85% of hydrogen doesn’t move at all in Europe. It’s consumed right where it’s made. So why so little part of the produced hydrogen is being transported?Hydrogen Value ChainKeep in mind that hydrogen itself is not the energy source, but rather an energy carrier. The energy itself must be generated by other…
