Hydrogen as a zero-carbon energy carrier has the potential to transform fundamentally the global energy landscape—but the production must benefit the environment, according to experts at Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy. The largest markets for non-combusted carbon are carbon black (~10s MT), graphite (~0.1
