Clean Technica: The idea behind power-to-gas has been around for a while. It uses electric power to produce gaseous fuel, usually hydrogen. The advantages are that it can be used to take up excess electric energy from renewable generation in a chemical form. Later, the fuel can be used as needed.
The gas produced does not need to be for generating electricity. It can be used to power internal combustion engines, to heat buildings, or even as an industrial feedstock. And there has been a lot of research done to create the hydrogen from electric power in the most efficient way possible, to make the economics of the process work well.
