The case for using Power-to-Gas solutions to store renewable energy is compelling for a number of important use cases, according to a new white paper released by the California Hydrogen Business Council (CHBC). Constraining storage solutions to “electricity-in, electricity-out” only will increase the cost of intermittency.
