Green Hydrogen

CH2LE
“I believe that water will one day be
employed as fuel, that hydrogen and
oxygen which constitute it, used singly
or together, will furnish an inexhaustible
source of heat and light, of an intensity
of which coal is not capable”
Jules Verne, 1874

M INISTR Y O F ENER G Y | 10
Whatis hydrogen?

• Hydrogen is the most abundant element in nature.

• Hydrogen may be obtained from natural gas (grey and blue hydrogen) or from wáter (green hydrogen).

• The hydrogen H2 molecule has a high energy density by mass unit (3 times more than gasolina and 120 times more
tan lithium batteries).
