CHICAGO and NEW YORK, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- S&P Global Commodity Insights and GTI Energy today announced a cohort of new stakeholders to their Open Hydrogen Initiative (OHI), a recently announced collaboration to further transparency into the environmental impact of hydrogen production and help unlock its full potential as a fuel alternative and important driver of energy transition. The mission is to create an industry-led objective, credible, and harmonized methodology and toolkit for measuring the carbon intensity of hydrogen production at the facility level to lay the foundation for a low-carbon hydrogen marketplace. 

Key Points: 
  • Initial stakeholder work is centered on the characterization of hydrogen production processes to understand energy and material flows and major emissions hotspots.
  • The Open Hydrogen Initiative is focused on identifying real-world applicability and credible carbon intensity values for a range of production methods, all critical to ensure a sustainable growth trajectory of hydrogen in the marketplace.
  • See sampling ofOHI Stakeholder Commentary:
    Alberta Energy said: "Alberta Energy applauds the efforts of the Open Hydrogen Initiative.
  • CHF is also coordinating with and organizing other emerging clean hydrogen hubs domestically and globally to ensurea vibrant, cross-region clean hydrogen market.
