In the quest for a sustainable future, the spotlight shines brightly on the promise of green hydrogen. Often dubbed the “fuel of the future,” green hydrogen represents a key solution in decarbonizing industries, transportation, and energy production. Today, hydrogen is mainly used in the refining and chemical sectors and produced using fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas, and thus responsible for significant annual CO2 emissions. As such, the switch from traditionally produced hydrogen to hydrogen produced from renewable energy is a major improvement to achieve global CO2 emission reduction targets. ...
