Almost all hydrogen produced today is designated as brown, black, or gray, meaning it was generated by burning natural gas or coal. In the future we’ll need to replace this dirty hydrogen with green hydrogen, produced by electrolysis using renewable electricity. That variability will also strain the electrical systems.
