GE Gas Power (GE) will collaborate with energy major Shell Global Solutions (Shell) in a partnership that aims to reduce the carbon intensity of Shell’s global liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply projects.
Announced today (7th Nov), the agreement will see the companies working together to explore the use of hydrogen as a low carbon fuel instead of natural gas in power generation and mechanical drive gas turbines.
According to GE, global LNG demand is projected to almost double by 2040. By harnessing Shell’s Blue Hydrogen Process technology, the company hopes to reduce the carbon intensity associated with the production of LNG.
Having worked on hydrogen combustion technologies for several years, John Intile, Vice President Engineering at GE believes that progress in this area requires collaboration by industry leaders, adding, “We look forward to working in cooperation with Shell to advance this crucial body of work.”
