Hydrogen in the Power Sector: Limited Prospects in a Decarbonized Electric Grid
This paper investigates the following questions related to the potential role that clean hydrogen can play in decarbonizing the power sector:
- Is burning hydrogen in power plants technically feasible?
- What infrastructure is required to use hydrogen in the power sector and what
could that infrastructure cost? - Does burning low-carbon hydrogen reduce lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions from
power plants? - What are the economics of using lowcarbon hydrogen in the power sector and how does it compare to alternative technologies?
