TMX’s C$3B/Year Oil & Gas Subsidy Lesson: Design Energy Corridor For Electrons Not Oil
Canada is once again flirting with the idea of an east-west energy corridor. The vision sounds big and bold: a designated path across the country to carry everything from crude oil to natural gas, hydrogen to electricity. In this rapid, Trump-inflected election cycle, political leaders are lining up behind the … [continued]

The Biggest Machine In The World Is Being Rebuilt While It Continues To Run
Recently I had the opportunity to sit down with Mark O’Malley, Leverhulme Professor of Power Systems at the Imperial College of London and founder of the Global Power System Transformation organization, which was based on the principle of grids moving toward 100% renewables. The grid is the biggest machine in … [continued]

Debunking The Myth: Hydrogen Fuel Cells Aren’t More Efficient Than Alternatives
Hydrogen is often promoted as a clean and efficient energy carrier, but its real-world efficiency is frequently overstated. Proponents of hydrogen fuel cells highlight their conversion efficiencies of 50–60%, comparing them favorably to internal combustion engines (ICEs). However, this selective framing ignores the full energy pathway, from hydrogen production to … [continued]

Hydrogen Electrolysis Cost Projections from Major Organizations Low by 60% to 300%
For years, major organizations like the IEA, IRENA, BNEF, the Hydrogen Council and CSIRO have been projecting future costs for hydrogen electrolysis systems and the future cost of green hydrogen that don’t stand up to scrutiny. As a result, their projections of future costs increase every year, yet real-world data … [continued]
