The DOE updated their Hydrogen Pathway to Commercial report, raising their cost estimate for electrolytic hydrogen production from $3-6/kg to $5-7/kg (exclusive of 45V credits). Still too low?

Their data is sourced from 'private sector announcements' and their map includes many cancelled projects

US Government Accountability Office's map showing which markets are most affected by corporate buyers of single family homes. Must be lots of Private Equity Real Estate bros from SEC schools

Virtual Power Plant (#VPP) is a broad term for incentive programs to reduce peak grid load. Utilities pay a $$$ during 'peak of the peak' energy demand on summer afternoons - often more than 10x the cost per kwh of base load. When utilities can't supply enough energy, you get brownouts / blackouts.

Some #chartcrime going on here, but FERC increased their forecast of the peak grid load by 5-10%

If this plays out, it will be interesting how much will be handled by subsidized #VPP + battery energy storage vs gas peaker plants

If the grid fails only the unsubsidized one will get the blame

The final 45V ruling kept the hourly temporal matching requirement which will come into effect in 2030. I'm curious if any electrolyzer projects will be possible without tech advancement?
7/ Key flexibility: Hour-by-hour calculations allowed with 4 kg CO2/kg H2 cap. Can calculate by individual electrolyzer. GREET version can be locked in at construction start. Shifts back hourly phase-in to 2030 but no grandfathering.

California has a unique regulatory power over #emissions stemming from their historic, unique air quality issues. Cali used this position to incentivize zero-emission vehicles and to schedule prohibition of ICE vehicles by 2035. The fuel industry is big mad the latter and a lawsuit is in progress.

Granite Creek Copper announced a new subsidiary, Element One Hydrogen, that will house its budding geologic #hydrogen projects

It will fit right in with Element 1 Hydrogen (elna.com), Element One Energy: Hydrogen (element1nrg.com), Element One Energy (eonee.no), and other similarly named companies

A bipartisan group of US Senators is supporting the Enhanced Energy Recovery Act, which will increase the 45Q tax incentives paid to O&G companies for carbon 'captured' by Enhanced Oil Recovery projects. Climate funding diverted to support increasing oil production. #hydrogen #ccus

Rochester New York is trying H2 FCEV busses and vans after experiencing issues with their battery electric vehicles which included community pushback to the high BEV cost, slow recharging, and poor range during cold winter weather.

H2 FCEV fuel can have much higher energy density than BEV. When combined with rapid refueling without grid infra changes, no wonder its preferable to batteries in the majority of high utilization heavy-duty vehicle fleets.

1% leakage rate for nat gas used for Blue Hydrogen increases the CO2 intensity of H2 above the threshold for 45V credits (Bertagni et al. 2022).

Explains why CVX, XOM, etc are so focused on leakage in their upstream Permian ops.

California Air Resources Board (2021) shows a waterfall
plot for the cost of CO2 capture from different industrial facilities (including 45Q and Cali LCFS credits). I don't know how green electrolysis derived H2 will be able to compete with blue CCUS given with this level of subsidy.

Texans are always near the top of the league in revenue and income, but skimp on maintenance - likely hoping the public will pay? www.statista.com/statistics/1...

Picks / screens on keepers during set pieces is a loophole. Spurs should be using it, rather than having it used on them
We had a goal conceded after the referee called our captain and then didn't allow him to recover his position. The second goal is already their usual block to our keeper, which was allowed by the referee.

Spurs and Brighton has been very physical so far. There’s going to be a lot of cards I suspect
