… What would be even more impressive would be to use excess wind generated electricity to produce Hydrogen, a green, clean gas that can use existing infrastructure. Even domestic home heating boilers can be converted to run on Hydrogen.
“Last year was a record breaker for the UK’s wind power industry.“
The idea of using excess wind energy to make hydrogen has sparked great interest, not least because governments are looking to move towards greener energy systems within the next 30 years, under the terms of the Paris climate agreement.
Hydrogen is predicted to be an important component in these systems and may be used in vehicles or in power plants. But for that to happen, production of the gas, which produces zero greenhouse gas emissions when burned, will need to dramatically increase in the coming decades.
