Whether solid, liquid, or gaseous, the phase of a fuel has
important implications for how it can be used. In the United States
approximately 20 per cent of the nation's electricity is obtained
from natural gas-fired power plants, and natural gas is extremely
important to residential and commercial heating markets. Hydrogen -
a fuel that continues to attract a great deal of attention and
research - derives its importance from the promise that it may one
day be competitive with oil as a transportation fuel. ""Natural Gas
and Hydrogen"" describes the technology and scale of the
infrastructure that has evolved to produce, transport, and consume
natural gas. It emphasizes the business of natural gas production
and the energy futures markets that have evolved as vehicles for
both speculation and risk management. This resource focuses on
possible advantages to the adoption of hydrogen as well as the
barriers that have so far prevented large-scale fuel switching. An
interview with Dr. Ray Boswell of the U.S. Department of Energy's
National Energy Technology Laboratory discusses his work in
identifying and characterizing methane hydrate reserves, one of the
most promising fields of energy research today.
