Hydrogen

Hydrogen has a leading role to play in the energy transition.

Leveraging hydrogen to drive sustainable operations

As business, industry and communities move to decarbonize the economy and reduce overall carbon impacts, the strategic use of clean, sustainable hydrogen and emerging hydrogen technologies will be essential enablers. Hydrogen’s status as a zero-carbon fuel makes it part of the suite of attractive solutions to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and move to cleaner, more sustainable energy sources.

Hydrogen has always been a key building block to ammonia, fertilizers and related refining processes. Production is generally through well-proven technologies. Today, interest in its application as a fuel is growing and expected to accelerate as more safe and economical ways to produce and transport hydrogen come to market. Whether produced as a “green” fuel through electrolysis with renewables, “blue” hydrogen produced via steam methane reforming, autothermal reforming, partial oxidation combined with carbon capture or “turquoise” hydrogen via pyrolysis, hydrogen in all its forms will be a greater contributor to a more sustainable future.

Advisory and insight for your hydrogen challenge

Lummus Consultants understands the various hydrogen production approaches, the unique safety considerations associated with hydrogen transportation and storage, and its growing end use applications in power production or chemical processes. Our experts can provide technical guidance to developers of hydrogen projects and to lenders and investors looking to invest in hydrogen projects. Examples include supporting the Department of Energy Loan Guarantee Program on a natural gas pyrolysis project with hydrogen as a co-product (the hydrogen will be used to produce ammonia). We have also recently provided technical support to a large mining company looking for a baseload renewable energy solution to support its plans to produce hydrogen via electrolysis. Lummus Consultants’ long experience in process and power technologies, including renewable energy, allows for a full understanding of the integrated hydrogen cycle from production through its end use.
