Hydrogen Production Methods: Wood Models $0.56/kg Cost for Eclipse Energy’s Subsurface Route

The article is largely consistent with Eclipse Energy’s September 22, 2026 announcement: Wood reportedly modeled an LCOH as low as $0.56/kg and carbon intensity of 0.076 kgCO2e/kgH2, and the 2025 California trial and Weatherford relationship are supported by company or media reports. However, the evidence is primarily company-provided, the underlying Wood assessment is not independently available, and several technical, regulatory, and commercial claims are overstated or unsupported. The events are recent, occurring within the last two weeks. It should be published only with qualifications.
