Green Hydrogen Production: Water Needs and Availability Concerns
Here’s an article posted in Mongabay.
According to the article,
Green hydrogen production is a promising clean energy solution, but concerns remain about its water requirements and availability. Here are the key points to consider:
- Water Requirement: Green hydrogen production requires water, with an annual water requirement relative to Earth’s water resources1.
- Water Consumption: Green hydrogen systems consume less water than fossil fuel-based hydrogen or some types of hydrogen, but efficient process management is essential
