Hydrogen 101

About

Hydrogen can be an abundant energy source. With personal hydrogen appliances and solar energy, energy abundance is possible in a distributed way.

To do so, we need:

1. Open source HICE as the next engine of civilization. Modular and scalable, manufactured in local microfactories with digital age precision.
2. Storage vessels
3. Hydrogen generation at low cost from renewable energy, demonetizing energy. As opposed to Brown Hydrogen

Cost of Production and Storage

• Cost of green hydrogen is $3.5/kg in 2023. [1]
  • 1 GW of electrolysis has been installed by 2024, and 12 GW have passed Financial Investment Decision (FID) [2]
  • Projections of 300 GW by 2030 are announced on p. 11 [3] but reality so far was 20% meeting of goals to present.
• This is for centralized production. OSE proposes ntegrated decentralized production on the home and village scale, which can be done today at approximately $1.4/kg.
