The End-Use Crisis in Hydrogen — Why the World Needs CRT

1. The Global Hydrogen Paradox

Governments and industries worldwide are investing billions into hydrogen

production—electrolysers, hubs, export terminals, and pipelines. Yet a fundamental question

remains unanswered:

What is the final, scalable end-use of hydrogen?

Despite massive investment, no universal, commercially viable, large-scale end-use pathway exists

today. The world is producing hydrogen without a plan for how to use it.

2. Why Current Hydrogen Carriers Are Only Detours

Ammonia

- Requires energy-intensive nitrogen separation.

- Cracking back to hydrogen is costly and inefficient (40–50% energy loss).

- Produces NOx on combustion.

- Toxicity and safety concerns limit wide adoption.

- Converting ammonia to urea requires adding carbon—defeating the purpose.

Methanol & Liquid Organic Carriers

- Methanol fuel cells remain niche and cannot scale to grid-level energy.

- Liquid carriers (MCH, others) are complex, catalyst-dependent, and inefficient.

Liquid or Compressed Hydrogen

- Extreme cryogenic temperatures (−253°C) or very high pressures are required.

- Boil-off losses, material embrittlement, and major safety risks.

- Not economical at the industrial or national scale.

Conclusion: All existing hydrogen carriers add cost, energy loss, and complexity. They solve none of

the long-term stability, storage, or combustion challenges.

3. The Missing Piece: A Practical, Scalable Hydrogen End-Use

Industry wants a fuel that:

- Burns stably.

- Works in existing turbines and infrastructure.

- Stores easily.

- Transports safely.

- Scales to baseload power.

Hydrogen alone does not meet these requirements. Methane does. But methane only becomes

climate-compatible if the carbon is kept in a closed loop.

4. CRT: The Only Complete End-Use Pathway for Hydrogen

Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) solves the end-use crisis by providing hydrogen with its

natural and universal carrier: carbon.

CRT Converts Renewable Hydrogen into Renewable Methane (RNG)

- Perfect combustion properties.

- Fully compatible with all existing gas turbines.

- Uses global gas infrastructure without modification.

- Enables true 24/7 renewable baseload power.

- Stores and transports easily and safely.

- Eliminates reliance on ammonia, methanol, cryogenic hydrogen, or detours.

Most importantly:

CRT keeps carbon permanently inside a closed loop.

No CO2 escapes. No atmospheric accumulation. No external emissions.

This transforms methane into a renewable, perpetual, zero-emission energy carrier.

5. Solar Energy: The Ultimate Fuel, Delivered Through CRT

Solar energy is the ultimate, universally accepted renewable fuel. But the world lacks a scalable,

practical pathway to deliver solar energy directly to industries, businesses, and homes.

CRT provides the simplest, most established, and technically proven pathway to convert solar

power into a usable, dispatchable fuel.

By converting solar-derived hydrogen into renewable methane and recycling carbon indefinitely,

CRT transforms intermittent sunlight into a continuous, stable, transportable energy source.

6. Why the World Needs CRT Now

The hydrogen industry faces a structural bottleneck: massive production with no viable end-use

pathway. CRT resolves this crisis by providing:

- A stable hydrogen end-use.

- A fully scalable renewable fuel.

- Immediate grid and industrial compatibility.

- A true zero-emission closed-carbon cycle.

- A practical alternative to all detour carriers.

CRT is not another hydrogen technology—it is the missing system that makes the entire hydrogen

economy viable.
