SDive Brief:
Southern California Gas (SoCalGas) has partnered with startup H2U Technologies to evaluate whether technology developed at Caltech will reduce the cost of green hydrogen production in commercial settings.
By replacing rare earth metals used in conventional electrolysis with more readily available materials, H2U hopes to cut the cost of green hydrogen by half, according to an April announcement.
Green hydrogen is one potential strategy identified by SoCalGas to help the company achieve carbon neutrality by 2045, according to Neil Navin, vice president, clean energy innovations for SoCalGas. However, he said the cost of hydrogen will have to drop by far more than half to become financially viable.
