There will be continuous streams of both “upstream” methane and “downstream” hydrogen being leaked from the blue hydrogen value chain every day that a production facility is operating, …

Dec 16, 2024 · In this work, the direct comparison generates a simple look at the relative climate impacts of leaked hydrogen and leaked methane — valuable information to take into account …

Jan 2, 2024 · This study aims to compare the climate change impacts and the main factors affecting them for different categories of hydrogen production, including grey hydrogen (SMR), …

al due to its impact on methane. According to Goita et al. (2024), if hydrogen deployment were to reach global scales without adequate leakage controls, the methane amplification effect alone …

There are a series of studies focusing on analysing the impact of methane leakage rate and carbon capture rate on the environmental impact of blue hydrogen using primarily techno …

Feb 21, 2024 · For example, for blue (natural gas with carbon capture) hydrogen pathways, the inclusion of upper-end hydrogen and methane emissions can yield an increase in warming in …

However, upstream methane emissions can greatly reduce the climate benefits of blue hydrogen. Methane is the main component of natural gas and is vented and leaked into the atmosphere …

May 22, 2024 · The goal is to understand whether importing hydrogen could make sense from an environmental perspective, and if so, which is the option with the lowest impact among the …

We account for a plausible range of hydrogen emission rates and include methane emissions when hydrogen is produced via natural gas with carbon capture, usage, and storage (CCUS) …

Dec 17, 2024 · In this work, the direct comparison generates a simple look at the relative climate impacts of leaked hydrogen and leaked methane — valuable information to take into account …
