This article on Spectra dives into the white hydrogen story and is a great introduction for those trying to learn more about the emerging natural hydrogen industry.
It details how hydrogen’s input as a clean energy source is seen as a game-changer for decarbonising sectors like power generation, heavy industries, and long-haul transport due to its low-cost and low-carbon footprint.
Natural hydrogen is found in the Earth’s crust and can be accessed similarly to natural gas through drilling. Significant deposits have been identified globally, from Mali to the US, with the potential to meet energy demands for centuries. Current projects are leveraging oil and gas technologies to access these hydrogen deposits, which only need purification before use, bypassing COâ‚‚-heavy synthesis processes.
