Green hydrogen can play an important role in helping China peak, and then neutralize, its carbon emissions. It is vital to China’s strategic ambition to build a green, low-carbon industrial system. As the world’s largest hydrogen producer and consumer, China’s current hydrogen production is largely grey. Of the 34 million tons of hydrogen that China produced in 2021, 80.3% was produced from fossil fuels, 18.5% from industrial byproduction and 1.2% from electrolysis (of this, less than 0.1% from electrolysis powered by renewable energy sources). Demand for green hydrogen is greatly constrained by cost and availability, as its applications are currently […]
