What is green hydrogen?
Green hydrogen is a clean and renewable energy vector that promises to play a pivotal role in the transition to a sustainable and carbon-free future. As the world struggles to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels and decarbonize the economy, H2G has emerged as a promising solution due to its many applications and its ability to be produced without greenhouse gas emissions.
H2G produced with renewable energy sourcessuch as solar or wind energy. During this process, the electricity produced from these sources, splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen. The resulting hydrogen is what is known as green hydrogen, as its production does not produce carbon emissions or other pollutants.
Advantages of green hydrogen
It has a wide variety of applications as it can be used as fuel for fuel cell vehicles, raw materials in industrial processes, energy source in power stations and renewable energy storage vehicles.
The use of green hydrogen is emerging as an opportunity to reduce carbon emissions and move towards a cleaner and more sustainable energy model. With its privileged geographical location and focus on innovation and industry, the province of Alicante is presented as an ideal environment to promote the development and application of this technology.
The budding cluster members discussed next steps, milestones, and important dates. new regional administration In addition to the Alicante Hydrogen Valley project, the Alicante Provincial Council and the municipalities of the province, which have the potential to be committed to a project of this size, are gaining a position on their own with the inclusion of new actors belonging to the strategic productive sectors of the province.
