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. When the hydrogen molecule is allowed to bond again, this energy will be released, though with some energy loss.
