SMR requires steam, heat, and pressure to convert methane (in natural gas) to hydrogen and carbon monoxide. There’s also “pink” hydrogen—produced via electrolysis with electricity from nuclear power—and “blue” hydrogen—produced via SMR but with carbon capture and sequestration, among other colors. What’s with the colors?

We also evaluated the potential to accelerate the use of renewable energy dramatically through state-level renewable electricity standards, which have been major drivers of clean energy in recent decades. What job opportunities would this clean energy transition create? In the no-new-policy scenario, it drops to 3.3
