Canadian pipeline company TC Energy is aiming to expand the volume of methane gas that it ships through a long distance pipeline in the Pacific Northwest, potentially locking in higher gas use despite laws in western states that chart a path away from fossil fuels in the years ahead. That trend is spreading in the Northwest.

The fuel comes in a variety of “colours”, depending on how it is produced, with almost all hydrogen currently created using fossil gas and termed “grey”. Experts dispute this climate-friendly branding, however, given the problem of methane leakages through the production and transportation process, and doubts about the efficacy of CCS.

At the very least, utilities will need plans that can get them most of the way there, while rushing ahead with next-generation technologies: long-duration energy storage, small modular nuclear reactors or green hydrogen and methane to fuel natural gas peaker plants. Here's a look at the five largest U.S. Dominion Energy.

Although this hydrogen is used to refine the fuel in chemical processes - for example to remove sulfur from the crude oil feedstock - we assume they are separate demands for this article.

This is the practice where natural gas is separated into hydrogen and CO2, where the hydrogen is used for the petrochemical industry and CO2 is simply released into the atmosphere. It can also be argued however that prices will go up as demand for CO2 might outrun supply. In particular, the creation of so-called grey hydrogen.
