The Rise of Renewable Hydrogen in Europe
A recent auction held by the European Hydrogen Bank has brought renewable hydrogen production to the forefront of the European energy transition. The auction, which exceeded expectations, saw seven winning…
H2 Revolution
Renewable hydrogen refers to hydrogen gas that is produced using renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar, hydroelectric, or biomass. Unlike hydrogen derived from fossil fuels through processes like steam methane reforming, renewable hydrogen is generated through processes that do not emit greenhouse gases, making it a cleaner alternative. The most common method for producing renewable hydrogen is electrolysis, where electricity from renewable sources is used to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Renewable hydrogen can be used as a clean fuel for transportation, as an energy storage solution, or as a feedstock in various industrial processes. Its potential for reducing carbon emissions and supporting the transition to a sustainable energy system makes it a key component in efforts to combat climate change and promote energy independence.
