Blue hydrogen is produced from natural gas, with carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology scooping up the resulting CO2. The EU is aiming to be net-zero carbon across all sectors by 2050. Hydrogen is likely to play a substantial role in getting carbon out of those hard-to-reach sectors like heavy industry and freight.
