A new coalition of organisations has launched a Gold Hydrogen Programme in order to extract hydrogen that has been created deep underground.

With the potential to revitalise thousands of depleted, abandoned oil and gas reservoirs around the US, the extraction techniques combine existing infrastructure with cutting-edge microbiology to scale clean energy solutions quickly while creating new revenue streams for heavy industry companies.

The Gold Hydrogen programme contains global players from the hydrogen industry including Cemvita Factory, Chart Industries, EXP, and the Center for Houston’s Future.

Jill Evanko, CEO of Chart Industries, said, “We continue to believe that innovation and collaboration are critical to the future of hydrogen and the accomplishment of private and public carbon emission reduction goals.

“Cemvita has a unique approach to this, and we are pleased to partner with another application that is likely to utilise Chart hydrogen and cryogenic equipment.”
