The path to truly renewable energy has to include renewable fuels. Although we strive to electrify the energy system through renewables, we can’t electrify everything: many modes of heavy transport have to run on fuel. Green hydrogen is the ideal fuel to take the place of today’s fossil hydrocarbons. It offers abundant, affordable, renewable and transportable clean power. But to get there, we need truly green hydrogen energy production. Unfortunately, much of today’s hydrogen fuel is made through the gasification of coal or lignite, or through steam methane reformation. Neither process is clean. For hydrogen to be called truly green, it must come from renewable sources, with a process that produces zero emissions,. Today, green hydrogen currently accounts for less than 1 percent of all annual hydrogen production. For the sake of the planet, this must change.
