The fuel, commonly known as natural gas, now powers the biggest portion of US electricity generation—more than 40 percent. It has also grown to be the largest source of carbon pollution from the US power sector, even as zero-carbon renewable energy has been growing by leaps and bounds. of that fuel.

One issue is the reduction in smokestack carbon pollution that hydrogen cofiring can actually offer. That means that, for a plant to generate the same amount of electricity, it needs to burn more of a gas-hydrogen blend. SMR involves using steam to separate the hydrogen from the carbon in methane (CH 4 ). So far, so good.
