I-Green Hydrogen International, inkampani esafufusa ese-US, izokwakha iphrojekthi ye-hydrogen eluhlaza enkulu kunazo zonke emhlabeni eTexas, lapho ihlela ukukhiqiza i-hydrogen isebenzisa izinhlelo zokugcina usawoti ezingama-60GW zamandla elanga nawomoya.
Itholakala eDuval, eNingizimu yeTexas, le phrojekthi ihlelwe ukukhiqiza amathani angaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-2.5 ze-hydrogen empunga minyaka yonke, okumelela amaphesenti angu-3.5 okukhiqizwa kwe-hydrogen empunga emhlabeni jikelele.
Kuyaphawuleka ukuthi enye yezindlela zayo zokukhipha igesi iholela eCorpus Christ naseBrownsville emngceleni we-US-Mexico, lapho kusekelwe khona iphrojekthi ye-SpaceX kaMusk, futhi okungenye yezizathu zalo msebenzi — ukuhlanganisa i-hydrogen ne-carbon dioxide ukudala uphethiloli ohlanzekile ofanele ukusetshenziswa kwerokhethi. Ngenxa yalokho, i-SpaceX ithuthukisa izinjini ezintsha zerokhethi, ezazisebenzisa uphethiloli osekelwe kumalahle ngaphambilini.
Ngaphezu kukaphethiloli wejethi, inkampani ibheka nezinye izindlela zokusebenzisa i-hydrogen, njengokuyihambisa ezitshalweni zamandla ezisebenzisa igesi eziseduze ukuze ithathe indawo yegesi yemvelo, ukwenziwa kwe-ammonia nokuyithumela kwamanye amazwe emhlabeni jikelele.
Yasungulwa ngo-2019 ngunjiniyela wamandla avuselelekayo uBrian Maxwell, iphrojekthi yokuqala ye-2GW ihlelelwe ukuqala ukusebenza ngo-2026, iphelele ngemihume emibili kasawoti yokugcina i-hydrogen ecindezelwe. Le nkampani ithi i-dome ingabamba imihume yokugcina i-hydrogen engaphezu kuka-50, inikeza isitoreji samandla esingafika ku-6TWh.
Ngaphambilini, iphrojekthi enkulu kunazo zonke emhlabeni ye-single-unit Green hydrogen eyamenyezelwa kwakuyi-Western Green Energy Hub eNtshonalanga Australia, enikwe amandla yi-50GW yamandla omoya kanye nelanga; iKazakhstan nayo inephrojekthi ye-45GW green hydrogen ehleliwe.
