Power-to-gas is another technology option for long-term energy storage. Excess power from when renewable resources are plentiful can be used to break water into hydrogen and oxygen in a process called electrolysis. The hydrogen can further be converted into methane (or "synthetic natural gas") via a methanation reaction that combines CO2

Electrolytic hydrogen or power-to-gas (P2G), is the conversion of electrical power into a gaseous energy carrier, such as hydrogen or methane, using an electrolyzer. When powered with renewable electricity, P2G is a green hydrogen source. Other green hydrogen generation pathways exist, including biogas reforming and artificial photosynthesis.
