Zelený vodík

Zelený vodík, or „green hydrogen,“ refers to hydrogen that is produced through renewable energy sources using electrolysis. In this process, electricity generated from renewable sources such as wind, solar, or hydropower is used to split water (H2O) into hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2). The hydrogen produced is considered „green“ because it does not release carbon emissions during its production, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to hydrogen produced from fossil fuels, which can generate significant greenhouse gases.

Green hydrogen is seen as a key player in the transition towards sustainable energy systems and is used in various applications, including fuel cells for vehicles, energy storage, and as a feedstock for industrial processes. Its adoption aims to decarbonize sectors that are challenging to electrify, such as heavy industry and long-haul transportation, contributing to efforts to combat climate change and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
