Hydrogen 101: Here's What You Need to Know

The hydrogen economy is projected to be a multi-trillion-dollar opportunity by 2050 and one of the key technologies for decarbonization. However, the lower carbon intensity solutions for hydrogen are currently in their infancy. For instance, the installed capacity for electrolyzers is projected to increase 200x by 2030. As the industry scales, several technologies and businesses in the hydrogen ecosystem - from production, storage and transportation to consumption will need to be developed at scale.
In this inaugural event in the Hydrogen Series at MIT CNC, Dr. Bryan Pivovar and Steve O’Rourke will provide insights into the current landscape and on the opportunities in the hydrogen sector. Dr. Pivovar will begin his presentation with a broad overview of production technologies, DOE initiatives, and the current technology roadmaps. Steve’s presentation will provide a broad overview of applications, with particular emphasis on hydrogen transportation, storage and project development. He will also discuss the differences and opportunities across various geographical markets.
Toward the end of the talk, the speakers will aim to cut through the noise and provide their assessment of opportunities and challenges in the burgeoning hydrogen sector.

Have salt and sand batteries back the grid, in the regenerative grid theory concept. That way, costs drop for electricity across the board, and hydrogen becomes a more easily recognized best option as curves adjust.

Metal powders as fuels, sand batteries, brick batteries, along with nuclear power, could provide the thermal energy streams for solid oxide hydrogen production, as well.
Let's experiment a bit.

How about Japan efforts on HTGR? Any good?

[@vtr8427]

in future can fusion be used to product hydrogen ?

Use wider pipes for hydrogen. 1 ton per pipeline kilometer per day, is the basic heuristic for profitability.
Everything has been figured out elsewhere.
This isn't really all that hard.
Cash in.
