Green hydrogen holds many promises: it can serve as a ‘battery’ for energy storage, it can be used in the chemical industry, and its only emission will be water vapour. To make this happen, you need to add some energy. Allowing hydrogen to bond with oxygen again results in the production of water and the release of energy.
