Xcel Energy, INL to use nuclear energy for clean hydrogen production; HTSE

Green Car Congress

The resulting hydrogen will initially be used at the power plant, but it could eventually be sold to other industries. It builds on a project launched last year to demonstrate how hydrogen production facilities could be installed at operating nuclear power plants. The report was published by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.
