Hydrogen Benefits:
Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe and can be produced from various renewable sources, such as water electrolysis powered by solar or wind energy.
Produce no harmful emissions, only water vapor and heat.
Requires less mining and is a versatile energy carrier.
Long Durational Energy Storage (LDES) solution.
Environmental Highlights
UN Sustainability Goal 13: Climate Action 1.5℃ goal:
August 2023 was the hottest on record by a large margin, the hottest month ever after July 2023.
Global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the energy sector reched a new record high of 37 billion tonnes (Gt) in 2022, 1% above their pre-pandemic level, but are set to peak this decade.
Transportation accounted from approximately 24% of the global energy-related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in 2020 (IEA).
Massive consumption of current applications produce high levels CO2.
