Reshaping Alaska’s energy future with geologic hydrogen is the subject of a three-day workshop next week hosted by the University of Alaska Fairbanks Geophysical Institute and the U.S. Arctic Research Commission.
The workshop is co-sponsored by the Office of the U.S. Ambassador-at-Large for Arctic Affairs, Michael Sfraga. He will attend.
Geologic hydrogen gas is created in Earth’s subsurface through various natural, geological processes. Hydrogen is considered a clean fuel source because it produces only water vapor as a byproduct, resulting in no carbon emissions at the point of use.
The Oct. 29-31 Geologic Hydrogen Workshop at UAF’s Wood Center will bring together scientists from UAF and other universities, energy experts, the private sector, Alaska Native corporations and state and federal policymakers, including from the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.
Sfraga previously served in several…
