Hydrogen is thus greasing the wheels of the global transition to cleaner energy. Regardless of whether hydrogen or PtX products are being generated, the production islands won’t be directly connected to an onshore power grid, and so they’ll need to operate reliably on their own. And the world is going to need a lot more of it.
