MIDLANDS GREEN HYDROGEN WORKSHOP
The Midlands Green Hydrogen Event on 10th April went well with 20 speakers and 60 attendees. Starting from the fact that West Midlands has only one GW of renewable power generation, almost as bad as London at the bottom of the league table of England-green-energy regions, the event showed that UK needs new Wind/Solar, driving electrolysers to make local hydrogen on sites from 1000 to 30,000 people, feeding both vehicles and buildings locally. The Grid is far too small and uneconomic to do this by 2050, while also wasting green energy when wind/solar is high, and refusing to connect solar farms, so local efforts are required immediately to set up novel generation systems. Vehicles and buildings form 79% of the UK carbon problem.
