America discovers white rocks with infinite energy: It’s the oil of the 21st Century

The EcoNews article discusses groundbreaking research in white hydrogen framing it as a transformative energy source poised to replace traditional fossil fuels.

This is an interesting article as it highlights research at MIT, which focuses on stimulating and extracting hydrogen from iron-rich rocks. The piece also emphasises the economic and environmental advantages of white hydrogen. Unlike green hydrogen, which relies on energy-intensive electrolysis, and grey hydrogen, derived from natural gas, white hydrogen offers a cost-effective, low-carbon alternative.

While this research focuses on lab-based methods, HyTerra’s practical approach of using conventional oil and gas techniques to extract hydrogen directly from the subsurface puts us at the forefront of real-world applications. The global recognition of white hydrogen as a viable energy source, supported by both academic research and growing financial investment, creates a compelling narrative for the future of the industry.
