The present invention provides a method for producing hydrogen and electricity utilizing a system suitable for producing liquid hydrogen and/or electricity. The system includes a gas reforming unit for receiving and reforming a natural gas feed to produce a hydrogen-comprising gas; an electricity generation unit for receiving and converting hydrogen from the gas reforming unit to generate electricity; and a hydrogen liquefaction unit for receiving and liquefying hydrogen from the gas reforming unit. The hydrogen liquefaction unit is powered by at least part of the electricity produced by the electricity generation unit. During a first period of operation, natural gas is provided to the gas reforming unit and the system is operated to export liquid hydrogen, and during a second period of operation, natural gas is provided to the gas reforming unit and the system is operated to export electricity. |
