The US Geological Survey (USGS) has published its first map outlining the potential geologic hydrogen reserves in the United States. This map identifies regions with suitable conditions for hydrogen accumulation, including sources, reservoir rocks, and seals. Areas with higher prospectivity values are more likely to contain geologic hydrogen accumulations. According to USGS geologists, the estimated recoverable amount of hydrogen in these regions is approximately double the energy content of all proven natural gas reserves on Earth. This development highlights the potential for hydrogen as a significant energy resource in the US. In another advancement, Plug Power has secured a substantial $1.66 billion loan guarantee from the US Department of Energy to expand its low-carbon hydrogen production efforts across the country. The company plans to establish multiple low-carbon hydrogen projects, with initial projects slated to begin in Texas. This initiative not only bolsters hydrogen production but also contributes to job creation and the growth of domestic manufacturing capabilities. Furthermore, Cummins has achieved a milestone by introducing a new charger tailored for hydrogen internal combustion engines (H2 ICE) in Europe. This charger is targeted at heavy-duty commercial on-highway applications and signifies progress in utilizing hydrogen for transportation purposes. Cummins has additionally inked a deal to supply H2 ICE turbochargers to a European original equipment manufacturer, further expanding the reach of hydrogen-powered solutions. Lastly, Plug Power's collaboration with Allied Green Ammonia to provide electrolyzers for a hydrogen and ammonia facility in Australia's Northern Territory is a significant step towards green hydrogen production. The facility, powered by a large solar plant, will utilize green hydrogen to produce green ammonia, contributing to sustainable practices in the region. These developments underscore the increasing focus on hydrogen as a key element in the transition towards cleaner energy sources.
