4 technologies that are accelerating the green hydrogen revolution

  4 Technologies Driving The Green Hydrogen Revolution | World Economic Forum (weforum.org) Green hydrogen – produced using renewable energy – currently accounts for just 0.1% of global hydrogen production. But it's a powerful bet for solving renewables' intermittency problem and decarbonizing heavy industry. Scaling up  green hydrogen  does present challenges – but modern digital technology could provide some of the answers. Here's how. The potential of green hydrogen to plug the intermittency of solar and wind whilst burning like natural gas and serving as feedstock in industrial chemical processes has piqued the interest of businesses, governments and investors. Green hydrogen is produced through electrolysis, a process that separates water into hydrogen and oxygen, using electricity generated from renewable sources. Today it accounts for just  0.1%  of global hydrogen production. However, the declining costs of both renewable electricity (accounting for ~70% of the cost
