A team of researchers in South Korea has introduced a method that leverages post-consumer polystyrene (EPS, Styrofoam) waste—of which less than one percent is recycled—to produce liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs). This approach aims to confront two persistent challenges in the clean-energy transition: the low recycling rate of polystyrene and the difficulties of storing, transporting, and using hydrogen at scale.

Global hydrogen demand is projected to exceed 500 million tones a year by mid-century, yet most low-carbon supply options remain expensive or constrained by infrastructure. A recent analysis from the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies spotlights an emerging pathway: stimulated geologic hydrogen production.
