Company Continues to Explore Hydrogen’s
Potential in the Energy Transition
Chevron Corporation (NYSE: CVX) today announced it has joined
the Hydrogen Council, a global advisory body providing a long-term
vision for the role of hydrogen in the energy transition.
Chevron’s knowledge and experience with hydrogen complements the
collaborative strength of the Council. Hydrogen is used at Chevron
refineries to refine crude and in other chemical processes. From
2005 to 2010, Chevron operated five hydrogen filling stations at
fleet operator sites using multiple technologies for on-site
generation, storage and dispensing as part of a U.S. Department of
Energy hydrogen demonstration project that included AC Transit in
Northern California. Since that time, new regulations, automaker
commitments, and technology advancements have enhanced the
potential of hydrogen.
“Chevron has solved some of the world’s most complex energy
challenges of the past. And, we continue to explore ever-cleaner
energy solutions for the future,” said Michael Wirth, Chevron's
chairman and CEO. “Our support for the Hydrogen Council reflects
our view that hydrogen can play a role in a lower carbon future as
a transportation fuel, an industrial feedstock and an energy
storage medium.”
Hydrogen Council membership supports Chevron’s approach to the
energy transition and is an example of the company’s ongoing
commitment to innovate and to pursue ever-cleaner energy sources.
In addition to joining the Hydrogen Council, Chevron plans to
conduct hydrogen fueling station “test-and-learn” pilots at
locations in California. The company also recently contributed to a
report developed by the Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Energy Association
entitled Road Map to a US Hydrogen Economy. The report stresses the
versatility of hydrogen in a lower-carbon future.
