green hydrogen
Renewable electrolysis product
Green hydrogen is hydrogen produced using renewable energy sources, typically through electrolysis powered by wind or solar.
The "green" distinguishes it from gray hydrogen (made from natural gas) and blue hydrogen (natural gas with carbon capture).
Proponents see it as key to decarbonizing heavy industry and transportation: The steel plant plans to switch to green hydrogen by 2030.
