Chevron U.S.A. division Chevron New Energies has announced it is developing a 5 MW hydrogen production project in California’s Central Valley.

The project aims to create lower carbon energy by utilizing solar power, land and non-potable produced water from Chevron’s existing assets at the Lost Hills Oil Field in Kern County, Calif.

The company says this low carbon intensity (LCI) electrolytic hydrogen will be produced through electrolysis.

The facility is designed to produce two tons of LCI hydrogen daily.

“Hydrogen can play a vital role in our journey toward a lower carbon future,” says Austin Knight, vice president for hydrogen at Chevron New Energies. 

“Chevron already offers lower carbon fuels like sustainable aviation fuel, renewable diesel and others, and this project is expected to expand the portfolio of solutions Chevron could supply to the region. I’m excited about the scalability of this solution. However, our ability to meet growing hydrogen demand and help build hydrogen fueling infrastructure in California to a commercial scale with more widespread adoption will be strongly led by state and federal energy policies that promote new lower carbon energy solutions.”

Project development is expected to take multiple years, with the start of commercial operations depending on several factors, including final engineering design, timely permitting and obtaining necessary materials.

Is There a Pattern in Republicans’ Behavior?

I’m not sure it’s as simple as this, insofar as Bush 41 and 43 weren’t criminal sociopaths.

I happened to be driving through Manhattan on the very day that Colin Powell was addressing the United Nations just a few miles away and claimed, and I think honestly, that Saddam Hussein had “weapons of mass destruction,” and must be stopped by a U.S. military invasion.

Contrast that against what we’re doing in Iran.  Fifteen years ago, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), included Iran, the P5+1 nations (the United States, China, Russia, France, the United Kingdom, and Germany), alongside the European Union made an agreement in which most of the developed world agreed that Iran must not have a nuclear weapon.

That stood firmly in place until Trump’s latest war crime, which is costing lives and choking the world economy, solely to defend our president’s neuroses.

Illegal Immigrants Are Voting Huge?

The Brennan Center at NYU’s seminal report on this issue, The Truth About Voter Fraud, found that most reported incidents of voter fraud are actually traceable to other sources, such as clerical errors or bad data matching practices. The report reviewed elections that had been meticulously studied for voter fraud and found incident rates between 0.0003 percent and 0.0025 percent.

Does that stop liars like Mike Lee from spreading disinformation of the subject?  Of course not.

There is no judgement day.  There is no Saint Peter standing in front of the Pearly Gates discerning good from evil and acting according.

That’s a lucky break for Mike Lee.
