Hydrogen industry told to focus on carbon, not colour

The nascent hydrogen industry should stop classifying its products by colour and instead focus on actual carbon content, according to the Japanese power utility that plans to make clean hydrogen from Australia’s dirtiest coal.

JPower director Jeremy Stone said he hoped the Australian government would be “agnostic” about colours as it works to update its hydrogen strategy and instead focus on the carbon-intensity of hydrogen. “Rather than saying it should be green, or blue, or whatever that is, that’s not going to serve the purpose for trade of hydrogen.“What is relevant to the customer is for their CO2 reduction to happen, and they need the carbon intensity number to work that.”

JPower and its partners would use gasification to separate the hydrogen and the carbon dioxide in the coal, then store the carbon dioxide stream in geological reservoirs in Victoria’s Gippsland province.It would then sell most of the hydrogen produced to another Japanese consortium led by Kawasaki, which plans to build liquefaction and export infrastructure at the Port of Hastings to supply the hydrogen to Kawasaki City near Tokyo.
