The proposed hydrogen and sustainable aviation fuel hub at PIT is an environmental and economic win-win. It’s emblematic of American #innovation, presenting an opportunity to redefine America’s clean energy future—and a broad/diverse coalition agrees. Have to question the motives of fringe voices opposing leveraging coal mine methane to help fuel our clean hydrogen economy.
Those ideologically opposed to our efforts say capturing waste methane and using it as low carbon intensity feedstock for clean hydrogen is the wrong approach. Yet, there is near unanimous recognition from leaders across the political spectrum that abating fugitive methane and putting it to use is the environmental and economic win-win our region needs.

9moSo the question is: exacting technical definition(s) & equivalents of any energy source INCLUDING “coal mine methane” so one must equitably DEFINE & provide “apples to apples” quantitative(s) from the various reliable energy fuel choice(s) aka Alternative resiurce(s): inclusive of, but not limited to: Natural Gas Methane {also: Hexane(s), pentane(s), propane(s), butane(s), ethane(es), hydrogen molecule(s), liquid petroleum(s)} and other core energy sourcing such as Landfill gases, Solar, Hydro-Generated, Nuclear(s), coal & coke-related(s) molecules, so broad energy suppliers & end user(s) have the ability to integrate Source Modeling to meet, and further meet, future incremental electric generation supply(ies) and the pipeline transfer capability(ies) to adequately deliver the molecules where generation and/or direct molecule usage is needed. A “cleaner” American Energy platform is required so to define “a molecule to molecule” Generated Approach (“MMGA”) is necessitated for the private and public sector to introduce a reliable, and cleaner, Foundational Approach Supply Track “FAST” to ensure American electrical grid supply and sufficient LNG export capacity to supply our int’l.
