July 2026 update:  I am withdrawing this recommendation written in November 2025.  It's cheap but basically a show to attract investors.  The project does not produce revenues, and HyTerra's limited funds are better employed in producing revenues as quickly as possible.  Please see Part 6 for the recommendation that replaces this project.  I am leaving Part 4 in place because the text identifies a number of parties, especially scientists and Kansas municipal public utilities, who might be interested in participating in HyTerra's future power generation activities. A Cheap Power Generation Proof-of-Concept Project To make the stock more attractive to investors, it’s crucial to demonstrate that subsurface hydrogen can be used to generate electrical power.  The steps required, purification, delivery and support for generation can be done with existing technology.   The trick is to do a proof-of-concept project cheaply, without having to build a refinery and distribution pipelines. My suggestion is to create a cooperative venture with the voluntary participation of four principals:  HyTerra, Siemens Energy of Finspang, Sweden, Hydrogen Mem-Tech of Trondheim, Norway, and the Clay Center Public Utilities Commission of Clay Center, Kansas.   Two other organizations would be invited as observers and possible participants:  Jenbacher of Jenbach, Austria, and the Kansas Power Pool of Topeka, Kansas.  If Siemens declines to participate, Jenbacher would fill in very well.  If Clay Center isn’t interested, the Kansas Power Pool would work.  The members of the Kansas Power Pool are municipal electric power utilities, some of whose service areas include the seven counties of Kansas where HyTerra has leases. Siemens would have the lead because they have deep pockets, a highly effective marketing and publicity operation, and a strong reputation.  If Siemens says it works, it works.  Two key participants from Siemens would be Marcus Jöcker, Technology Innovation Manager, and Jenny Larfeldt, Senior Combustion Expert.  From my reading, these two are among the most knowledgeable scientists in the world about electrical power generation with hydrogen as the prime mover.  Ms. Larfeldt would be able to advise on the combustion characteristics of subsurface hydrogen and the optimal levels of purity.   Mr. Jöcker managed a fascinating Siemens project called the Zero Emission Hydrogen Turbine Center, a demonstration project in support of Siemens’ objective to convert their turbines to hydrogen by 2030.  He not only has the technical expertise to operate a similar project but also the experience in evaluating efficiency and cost effectiveness.  Siemens would provide these scientists or similarly qualified deputies, a small skid-mounted hydrogen turbine, perhaps the same one used in the ZEHTC project, and a safety specialist as they did with the Constellation Energy Co-Firing project.   HyTerra would pump hydrogen from Sue Duroche 3, purify it using a contributed sample of Mem-Tech’s equipment, and store it in an above-ground tank.  They would also lease two to four compressed gas trailers.  While liquid hydrogen truck trailers and railroad tankers store a much larger quantity of hydrogen, the equipment for liquefying hydrogen is far more expensive and complicated to use.   A truck leased by HyTerra would haul a full trailer 47 miles to the Clay Center generating station each morning and bring back an empty trailer.  HyTerra would install a docking station at Clay Center that would allow the trailers to remain outside and connect to a valve that reduces the pressure from 1500 PSI at the trailer to the turbine inlet pressure.  The docking station could be built to connect up to four trailers to a common header, and a trailer could be connected or disconnected whether the turbine was operating or not.    If the budget permits two trucks and four trailers, the turbine could operate for a longer period of time each day, but that’s not essential.  To be useful, a generator would not need to operate 24 hours a day.  Generating stations have the equipment that allows turbines to be brought online as needed, and for proof of concept 3 or 4 hours a day of operation would suffice. Mem-Tech makes what seem to be the best hydrogen purification devices using a method that fits the volume of production for an individual well or a small cluster of closely located wells.  See the Wikipedia article on hydrogen purification.  Mem-Tech’s devices use the palladium membrane system but have been optimized to handle industrial-level volumes.   Why would these organizations voluntarily join such a project?  What’s in it for them?  Well, to be the first to show that subsurface hydrogen can be used to generate electricity, and to be known as the experts and best equipment suppliers when other deposits in the US and around the world are developed.  For Clay Center Public Utilities and Kansas Power Pool, their reward would be to find a way to use Kansas resources to meet Kansas power needs and sell the excess power to the rest of the country.
