Hydrogen can be stored and transported with a high energy density, and can be refilled in a short time. The “hydrogen circulation cycle,” which starts with renewable energy, consists of three phases – “generate,” “store/transport” and “use.” Starting with the use of water electrolysis technology, electricity derived from renewable energy sources can be converted into green hydrogen, making it less susceptible to fluctuations in power generation due to seasonality and weather conditions. It also becomes possible to transport the energy to where it is needed in the form of “green hydrogen” via transport by land, sea, and pipeline.

Inevitable Footnote

1 Hydrogen produced by electrolyzing water using renewable energy, which emits no CO2 during the production process.
