Dominion Energy is continuing its clean energy transformation with early investments in hydrogen. This emerging clean energy source will help the company achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions and support decarbonization of other industries such as transportation and manufacturing.
“Hydrogen is a huge innovation in clean energy,” said Mark Webb, chief innovation officer at Dominion Energy. “Few other energy sources have the potential to do so much good, so broadly across the economy.”
He added, “We’re investing in hydrogen today so it can hopefully transform the clean energy landscape in five or 10 years.”
The company is developing multiple pilot projects to blend hydrogen into its gas distribution system, which will reduce emissions and deliver clean energy to customers. The company is also exploring projects that use hydrogen for clean electricity, renewable storage, transportation and manufacturing.
The first pilot project is under way
