- pfdietz 4y agoThey might be using SMR hydrogen to start with, for demonstration purposes, but doing it with SMR at scale would make absolutely no sense; it would be cheaper and more efficient to store and use the natural gas directly.
- pfdietz 4y agoAh, I see. You are referring to the turbines burning a 30% H2/70% NG initially. They are still using electrolyzers to make the hydrogen. Going to turbines that burn 100% H2 is not a huge technical obstacle. There are already turbines burning hydrogen, so hydrogen combustors are feasible.
