This is a .PDF document from the CPUC about LADWP’s future plans for converting the IPP coal fired power plant in Utah to a solar and wind generating facility, a green hydrogen generation and underground storage site, replacing the coal plant with CCGTs – combined cycle gas turbine generators that will run on hydrogen, and

This very informative TED article explains what is and will be occuring in the near future with green hydrogen. It talks about how green hydrogen will be used for airplanes and heavy transportation. It gives projects that will be generating green hydrogen. Using green hydrogen as a replacement for diesel vehicles. At the end it

This opinion article is warning us that the gas industry is trying to get states to pass legislation to block the elimination of gas in homes. But it seems to me that this author is most likely from the electric industry and he’s trying to promote electrification of homes. But in fairness, his last sentence

From comment on Matt Ferrel’s Undecided The technologies for green energy and hydrogen are all there. The biggest issue is to get governments to make enough incentives to get companies to switch over to renewables plus storage. Tony Seba (in his YouTube videos) has stated that the country needs to build wind and solar plus

Comment from this YouTube video When it comes to generating power, there is only one factor that counts: cost per kWh. Renewables plus storage cost less than any conventional power and the cost is still going down. Those fossil fuel and nuclear power plants are unable to lower their costs and are being (and will

Very good explanation of Wright’s Law, applied to wind, solar and storage. And what it will do. We are not facing a slow energy transition. We are facing a rapid and total energy transformation, and it has already begun. https://youtu.be/6zgwiQ6BoLA
This is a novel idea. Heat up sand during the daytime with solar energy. After sunset circulate the hot sand through a steam generator to run a turbine and generator. Short 2 min video. https://youtu.be/KozXB04eM-c
