The International Renewable Energy Agency forecasts that hydrogen will cover 12%1 of global energy demand by 2050 and cut carbon emissions by 10% in a net zero scenario. As it stands, around 94 million tons2 (Mt) of hydrogen gas is produced annually, containing energy equal to 2.5% of global energy consumption.
With mounting pressure to produce and use energy responsibly, replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy sources for hydrogen processes is integral. This urgency is underlined by the feature of low-emission hydrogen, particularly green hydrogen, as a clean energy vector in all eight of the European Commission’s projected net zero scenarios for 2050.
