U.S. H2@Scale Vision and Hydrogen Earthshot Goal
The motive for hydrogen markets is driven by several factors. Hydrogen is required for ammonia-based fertilizers and petroleum refining. Future uses include steel production, transportation, and production of biofuels and synthetic jet and diesel fuel. Hydrogen is a leading energy storage option and can be used to arbitrage the energy produced by nuclear power plants. This can help firm variable renewable power generation. The U.S. Department of Energy establish the H2@Scale Initiative and is sponsoring R&D to help accelerated technology development and demonstration projects. Nuclear energy is considered a leading option for large-scale hydrogen production. The joint efforts of the LWRS and Hydrogen/Fuel Cell Programs can help achieve the U.S. Earthshot goal of producing a kilogram of hydrogen for 1.00USD by the end of the decade (1-1-1).
