Description (excerpt):
Exploring the Future of Geologic Hydrogen: Defining the Path Ahead (June 2025)outlines the current state of the emerging geologic hydrogen industry and maps out feasible pathways to prove the technology at scale. The report was developed following a full-day private workshop hosted by the EFI Foundation (EFIF) that brought together over 40 technical experts, industry, policymakers, and investors to assess the current state of geologic hydrogen and chart a path forward.
Geologic hydrogen is a naturally occurring and potentially abundant resource that could play a transformative role in achieving a decarbonized future. With relatively modest discovery and development costs, it is a low-risk, high-reward investment opportunity. The U.S. is well-positioned to lead this effort given its expertise in drilling, geoscience, and subsurface resource. If successful, geologic hydrogen can help to expand U.S. influence in global energy innovation.
