I recently recorded a podcast where I was relayed a comment from a third party executive in the midstream sector. Their comment was that innovative new companies, like @CruxOcm should target failing businesses as their first customers. This is backwards and I’m surprised that.

My neighbor recently proudly proclaimed they were now "100% electric" - but here's the reality check from California's energy landscape. When my neighbor boasted about going all-electric, I couldn't help but do the math. California's electricity grid is still 50% powered by.

That was an inspiring 48hrs with the fellows of this years @theC100! . Connections made. Core memories formed.

Here is my article in World Pipelines magazine elaborating on my thoughts (page 15).

If any of you are working at pipeline companies that are blending 10 to15% hydrogen, what do you think?.What was the ROI justification to blend and are the results the end point (people's homes) being tracked and demonstrating a reduction in emissions?.

Reducing emissions is extremely important so I think we need to make sure we are directing our efforts towards solutions that make an impact and we need to think critically about where pipeline companies are investing with respect to reducing emissions.

The upfront calculations may show a theoretical reduction in emissions but the physics of our systems combined with the physics of hydrogen gas, do not support an actual reduction once the gas makes it way through existing infrastructure to our homes where combustion occurs.

Then, are natural gas transmission and distribution pipeline companies achieving anything besides charging more in tolls and increasing energy costs in our homes?.

If we mix in the 10 - 15% that we know is safe, and almost all of it leaks out because the molecules are so small, and there is barely any left when it combusts in our homes, emissions are not reduced, plus its explosive as all hell.

Are we mixing hydrogen gas into our natural gas transmission and distribution systems just to feel good about ourselves?.
