Moving the energy portfolio from conventional fossil fuel-based to a balanced mix of renewable energies is one of the critical global challenges towards sustainability. Despite having many promising attributes, intermittency and grid instability of renewable energy (i.e., solar and wind) have resulted in growing strains on the electricity grid. Therefore, it is essential to identify cost-effective and efficient solutions for energy storage utilizing sustainable energy carriers. Scientists have hypothesised that hydrogen would play a critical role in the next energy revolution, being recognized as an alternative low or zero-emission energy source/transport medium. Underground Hydrogen Storage (UHS) is the preferred solution for large-scale and long-term energy storage in a hydrogen-based economy, considering economic and safety considerations. Different underground storage options have been identified in depleted hydrocarbon reservoirs, salt caverns, aquifers and underground mine excava
Texas is world capital of oil & gas can it be a New Energy capital and lead the world in energy transition? The article focuses on Texas competitive advantage for Hydrogen energy as a vector. Competitive Advantage Texas has several competitive advantages including: Produces 2.0 mtpa of hydrogen (Grey) from natural gas for refining and Ammonia industry.
