Current climate crisis makes the need for reducing carbon emissions more than evident. For this reason, renewable energy sources are expected to play a fundamental role. However, these not controllable, but depend on weather conditions. Therefore, green hydrogen (hydrogen produced from water electrolysis using energies) is emerging as key carrier solve problem. Although different properties of ...
