In Arizona, KTAR News reported that the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is selecting the Arizona Board of Regents on behalf of Arizona State University (ASU) to receive $800,000 in federal funding to support the increased use of clean hydrogen in industrial and power sectors.
The report noted that the award is part of an $8.8 million investment by the DOE’s Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management for 11 university-based research and development projects, aiming to improve the performance of hydrogen-fueled turbines.
ASU, along with the other selected projects, will develop advanced materials and components to withstand the extreme environment created during hydrogen combustion, enabling the use of up to 100% clean hydrogen in gas turbines for low-carbon power generation, the report added.
