US-based San Diego Gas and Electricity (SDG&E) announced on Monday (19th April) two new hydrogen pilot projects set to support the company’s ambitions of net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2045.

This is set to expand on SDG&E’s 13 energy storage projects, totalling near 45MW of energy storage. To maximise the use of renewable energy and enhance reliability, SDG&E expects to have a total of 135MW of utility-owned energy storage integrated into the local grid.
