Green Hydrogen and Blue Hydrogen -green?16 Jun 2024 20:08

fd20 hydrogen is not the ideal green energy, to put the discussion on a fair footing
Blue hydrogen
Steam plus methane(Natural Gas) = Hydrogen plus CO2
Green Hydrogen
School chemistry
Electrolysis of H20 = Oxygen + Hydrogen
Lot of energy needed in blue generation. I suppose equally for steam generation. Hydrogen is, if I remember correctly, a global warming gas. Leaks as with Natural gas pipe network are inevitable?
Do not know efficiencies of these processes.
Yes investment is being put into hydrogen production but assume it is blue not the green type. Transitional?
Not arguing just adding balance, I hope.
