“The holy grail” of the energy future – hydrogen may soon have a very serious problem, which, if not solved quickly, will bring the whole “hydrogen revolution” to a halt for us. This is caused by the already absolute certainty that hydrogen in the Earth’s atmosphere reacts with tropospheric hydroxyl (OH) radicals. Therefore, its uncontrolled emission into the atmosphere disturbs the distribution and holds dangerously the decomposition of methane, ozone or water vapour, which can lead us, in the short term, to a possible climate cataclysm.

Germany has long been known for its ambitious plans to transition away from fossil fuels, and green hydrogen has been a critical element in this strategy. However, the country can only meet 30% of its own needs for this clean fuel, according to German Economy Minister Robert Habeck. This shortfall has led the country to search for trade partners to deliver the remaining 70% of its green hydrogen needs.
