The GHC defines green hydrogen as “hydrogen that is not produced from fossil fuel feedstock sources.”

Green hydrogen can be generated from renewable electricity such as solar or wind power by electrolysis, from biogas by steam reforming, or from biomass through thermal conversion. The United States has relied on strategic petroleum reserves to ensure energy independence for decades. It is time to invest in strategic renewable energy reserves by creating and storing environmentally friendly green hydrogen.

With the advancement of low-cost renewable energy such as solar and wind and innovative forms of high-pressure storage, the opportunity for green hydrogen to decarbonize our power and fuel supply and create new pathways for economic development has never been greater.
