The oil giant plans to invest in underground salt caverns that can store solar and wind energy.

“This is a larger movement in the fossil fuel industry, going from denying the fact of climate change to just delaying climate action,” Gersen said.The Earthjustice report also notes that fossil fuels are used to produce nearly all the hydrogen in use today, unlike the “green” hydrogen that Mitsubishi and Magnum plan to produce in Utah.

It’s a unique beast, and hard to judge because nothing similar at this scale is being attempted elsewhere. Intermountain Power Plant provided 16% of the city’s electricity last year, so LADWP can’t just shut off the gas plant if hydrogen doesn’t work out — it needs that power. On the other hand, if everything does work out, there’s so much space to build underground salt caverns that Mitsubishi and Magnum could create a hydrogen hub serving customers all over the Western United States.

New bodycam video shows emotional Gabby Petito after reported fight with fiancé in UtahNew police body camera footage captured a visibly distraught Gabrielle 'Gabby' Petito and her fiancé after an alleged physical altercation between them on a cross-country road trip in Utah. I wish she would have called her family to come get her. So sad. Praying she is found. It is so telling that he is refusing to cooperate or tell where he left her or last saw her. Who does that? What a weirdo. Maybe a murderer. After listening to Gabby whine in the police video, I think I would have dumped her sorry a** by the nearest telephone and left.

Utah GOP lawmaker says ICUs are full because of 'chasing' staff away, not COVID-19'They're not out of space. They're out of employees. They chased their doctors away. They chased their nurses away. They made it hell for their employees.' How much $ did you charge for this article? The legislator appears to be the one being disingenuous. He doesn't seem to offer any proof that what he's saying is true. The hospital's CEO is more believable. Does somebody need a Utah Employment Lawyer? 😀

Chevron would rather pay dividends than invest in wind and solar -CEOChevron Corp Chief Executive Mike Wirth said on Wednesday the company prefers to return money to its shareholders rather than use it to invest in solar and wind power projects. Hydrocarbons make more economic sense than wind and solar. Without government subsidies, wind and solar would be very limited. We need to let market forces decide what is best. For the dummies on this feed. Renewables can’t even handle growth in energy demand. You screw around with energy like our virtue signaling leaders are and u cause wide spread famine. 80% of the earths population exists on this planet because of oil. CVX resting on their laurels 😂
