A Key to Carbon-Free-Economy Green Hydrogen Ushers Us into The Future
The planet is transitioning to clean, low-carbon energy sources at an unprecedented rate and scale. New technologies must be developed to replace fossil fuels for a carbon-neutral economy. Hydrogen has long been touted as the fuel of the future since it is abundant, inexpensive, and clean-burning.
It’s difficult to transport, may corrode metal, and is 20 times more explosive than gasoline. However, "green hydrogen" — hydrogen produced without the use of fossil fuels — has recently been found as a renewable energy source that might help the world achieve net-zero emissions.
Why Is Hydrogen Used As A Source of Energy?
From the usage of hydrogen cells for electricity delivery in the Athletes' Village to the construction of over 160 hydrogen stations for fuel cell cars, hydrogen technology was used to power
