The FCC's projected average electricity consumption is 1.3 TWh per year. If supplied entirely by nuclear power, this would represent about 10% of the annual output of a large third-generation nuclear reactor, together with a corresponding share of its radioactive waste. By 2050, however, renewable sources could provide up to 80% of this electricity on a substantially decarbonised European grid, supported by long-term power-purchase agreements and flexible operation. This could reduce the residual nuclear requirement, and its associated waste, by up to a factor of five. This essay asks whether hydrogen could help bridge the remaining periods of low wind and solar generation. It examines production from renewable electricity, transport as hydrogen or ammonia, storage and conversion back into electricity, together with their efficiency losses and carbon footprints. It then considers the still uncertain prospect of naturally occurring hydrogen. None of these routes offers a ready-made solution. But the decades before the FCC begins operation leave time to develop one--and CERN could help accelerate that development by becoming a credible long-term customer.
