Decarbonizing with Hydrogen: A Primer

Gas station (Shell) boasting Hydrogen as an option

Renewable electricity coupled with energy efficiency will be the powerhouses lowering carbon emissions over the next decade and beyond as Cascadia achieves a net-zero economy. For hard-to-electrify sectors of the economy, however, clean fuels are needed. Hydrogen could be a vital clean alternative to fossil fuels to meet 2050 greenhouse gas emissions targets, but only if it … Read more

Yet that bit of reality hasn’t shocked utilities into changing course, not even in the Northwest, where state climate targets are flatly incompatible with continued gas usage. Rather than adapt, these utilities are doubling down on gas with a … Read more
