Grey hydrogen
- Source: Natural gas via steam methane reforming
- Emissions: High CO2 output
Blue
Blue hydrogen
- Source: Fossil fuels with carbon capture
- Emissions: Low CO2 emissions
Green
Green hydrogen
- Source: Renewable energy via electrolysis
- Emissions: Zero Carbon
Pink
Pink hydrogen
- Source: Nuclear-powered electrolysis
- Emissions: Zero Carbon
Turquoise
Turquoise hydrogen
- Source: Methane pyrolysis
- Emissions: Solid carbon byproduct (low-emission potential)
How PSM Converts Gas Turbines for Natural Gas and/or Hydrogen Use
- Assess turbine compatibility: Analyze the turbine's design, materials, and operating parameters to ensure safe operation with hydrogen fuel.
- Modify fuel system: Adapt the existing system to accommodate hydrogen by installing a flexible supply system with blending and delivery capabilities.
- Upgrade combustion system: Retrofit or install a PSM FlameSheet™ or LEC III™ combustion system.
- Test and commission: Systematically test the upgraded turbine to ensure safety, efficiency, and performance improvements, including emission reductions.
PSM's team of specialized engineers and technicians guides customers through the conversion process. A comprehensive assessment of the plant and decarbonization goals determines the scope of the conversion.
