Context:
As per the study published in the journal Nature Energy, Green hydrogen would likely supply less than 1 per cent of final energy globally by 2035.
What is green hydrogen?
Hydrogen when produced by electrolysis using renewable energy is known as Green Hydrogen which has no carbon footprint.
Challenges for green hydrogen:
Low investment
Low stage of technology for sustainable production
The challenges in ramping up the supply of electrolysers — a device in which green hydrogen is produced Electrolysis capacity is still tiny compared to where we need to be in 2050 for Net Zero emissions scenarios
