What should you know about green hydrogen
Hydrogen is a versatile energy carrier and can be used as a fuel, and as a feedstock in various industries, such as aluminum, glass, steel, and cement.
Today the world consumes almost 100 million tonnes of hydrogen yearly, mainly used in oil refineries and ammonia plants. Over 99 percent of the current Hydrogen production is made from fossil fuels, either natural gas or coal, resulting in 900 million tonnes of CO2 being emitted annually
Green hydrogen is a potential emission free alternative to replace traditional hydrogen production methods and fossil fuels used in the industry and transport. It is produced by using renewable electricity to split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen, without emitting any greenhouse gases
Green hydrogen has the potential to play a key role in the global transition to a sustainable and net-zero emissions economy. For use in high heat processes, industries need to mature the fuel switch solutions to hydrogen.
