The National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) awarded a $215,758 Project Grant to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, Duluth for the "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: EAGER: CET: A NEW GEOLOGIC SOURCE FOR NATURAL HYDROGEN?" project. This early-concept exploratory research aims to identify and characterize new natural hydrogen resources in the United States, quantifying the hydrogen generation potential of iron-rich rocks through a multi-method, multi-scale approach. The research will also develop educational and workforce programs focused on the role of earth science in clean energy futures. The project seeks to provide foundational datasets to assess the potential for large-scale domestic hydrogen production and usage as an alternative clean energy source.
