Centralized Hydrogen Production from Coal Gasification with Sequestration

Project Summary

Full Title: Well-to-Wheels Case Study: Centralized Hydrogen Production from Coal Gasification with Sequestration
Project ID: 212
Principal Investigator: Fred Joseck
Keywords: Coal; hydrogen production; well-to-wheels (WTW); fuel cell vehicles (FCV)

Purpose

Provide well-to-wheels energy use and emissions data on a potential pathway for producing hydrogen from coal via centralized coal gasification with carbon dioxide sequestration. This data was used in developing the U.S. Department of Energy Hydrogen Posture Plan.
