Green Hydrogen Standard
Green Hydrogen Standard
#GH2’s definition of renewable energy is based on the technologies that are the leading candidates for scaling up green hydrogen production: hydropower, wind, solar, geothermal, tidal and other ocean energy sources. Some countries believe that there is a role for nuclear energy to accelerate the shift from more polluting activities, such as coal generation. However, nuclear power has environmental and safety related issues which this Standard is not designed to address.
Similarly, there are sustainability issues related to biomass and waste to energy that require careful scrutiny. GH2 welcomes the Green Hydrogen Standard inspiring further rules and standards for nuclear and other forms of energy production with close to zero emissions.
The Standard requires that the environmental, social and governance aspects of green hydrogen production are addressed. It requires that the development opportunities and impacts of green hydrogen production and use are considered. These are vital considerations for investors, customers, consumers and the communities that host green hydrogen projects.

Roadblock to Nuclear Expansion, Part 2
The title issue is both simple and complex. Current conventional (fission) nuclear reactors use fuel elements, each of which is a cluster of alloy tubes that (generally) contain enriched uranium. These fuel elements each have productive life of 2..
Is nuclear rising from the dead?
Nuclear has many distractors, but sentiment is shifting. And the level of activity in keeping existing plants running and developing new ones also is rising. But has anything changed to indicate nuclear can or should play a role moving forward?
