Beneath the surface: What you need to know about geologic hydrogen
Hydrogen has long played a vital role in the industrial landscape, from fertilizer production to petroleum refining. It will remain essential in a decarbonizing economy, where it is uniquely positioned to replace today’s carbon-intensive hydrogen use in “no-regrets” sectors such as hard-to-electrify industries, fertilizer production, petroleum refining, maritime shipping, heavy-duty trucking, and aviation. As momentum builds behind…

Geologic Hydrogen in Context
Hydrogen is a critical feedstock that can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions in sectors that are difficult to electrify, such as heavy industry, heavy-duty trucking, maritime shipping, and aviation. As the world moves to decarbonize hydrogen production, a lesser-known hydrogen source is beginning to draw serious attention: geologic hydrogen. Sometimes…

From Ambition to Realisation: A Vision for Germany’s Decarbonisation
Executive Summary Germany has made significant efforts toward achieving net-zero emissions and has markedly progressed in transforming its energy system. This success relies heavily on the expansion of renewable energy and enabling infrastructure. However, as weather-dependent renewable capacity grows, Germany increasingly faces periods of both energy surplus, when conditions are…

The 45Z clean fuel production tax credit is being used for unjustified giveaways to the conventional biofuels industry. The Senate should stop it.
The Senate should modify 45Z to ensure that it incentivizes only truly innovative clean fuels, such as synthetic or biogenic sustainable aviation fuel.

U.S. House move to eliminate critical provisions for clean energy and pollution reduction would undercut public health, stifle innovation, and hurt global competitiveness
Today, U.S. House committees are voting on legislation that would eliminate clean energy programs and undermine clean energy tax credits.

Hydrogen hubs are key to domestic energy production and regional economies across the U.S.
Hydrogen hubs are intended to test, develop, and demonstrate technologies needed to minimize emissions intensity of hydrogen production, and the Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs program is at a pivotal moment. Despite significant progress, support, and investment in the seven selected hydrogen hubs, there are reports that the Trump administration is…
