2021 was a big year for energy-related news, what with the ongoing hunt for new forms of energy storage and cleaner if not carbon-free electricity and events and research that spotlighted the weak links in our power grid. Most of the world’s hydrogen comes from deeply polluting methods. Well, let's think.
