Andorra

Andorra is a landlocked principality sandwiched in the Pyrenees between France and Spain. As such, it cannot produce hydrogen by electrolysis of seawater. However, it does have a Secretary of State for Energy Transition, Transport and Mobility.

White Hydrogen

A U.S. Geological Survey has determined that substantial natural reserves of gas hydrogen exist throughout the world that could potentially meet global energy needs for several hundred years. Although some technological questions remain to be resolved, in view of global warming and its deleterious consequences, it seems a concerted coordinated … Continue reading

Hydrogen as a Peacemaker

The idea of using solar (or geothermal) energy and seawater to mass-produce green hydrogen by electrolysis, burn it and add gravity to generate a surplus of electricity and freshwater, even far from shore (which desalination cannot do), is feasible, practical and necessary. Indeed, it is a seismic proposal, in more … Continue reading

How Much Solar to Produce 611,800,000,000 kg of Hydrogen/Year?

Question: Given: a recent breakthrough of researchers at the University of Adelaide has yielded an electrolysis process that is 100% efficient with a catalyst that prevents the anode and cathode from decay; the amount of hydrogen desired is 611,800,000,000 kg per year; the temperature of the seawater is 60 degrees … Continue reading

Required Number of Rooftops Equipped With Solar Panels to Produce 611,800,000,000 kg of Hydrogen

The first step in this estimation is accessing the Global Solar Atlas; click on the specific location and look for ‘specific photovoltaic power output’, or PVOUT. This estimates the annual productivity of solar panels for a given location, measured in kilowatt-hours generated per kilowatt of peak capacity (kWh/kWp). For purposes … Continue reading

Hydrogen Needed to Replace the California & Colorado Aqueducts

Southern California’s Water Most of southern California’s water is imported. The California Aqueduct delivers up to 4.2 million acre-feet, the Colorado River Aqueduct 3,069.6 acre-feet, and the Los Angeles Aqueduct 275,000 acre-feet, for a combined total of 4,478,069.6 acre-feet of water per year. Since 1 acre-foot = 1233.5 m3, 4,478,069.6 … Continue reading
