It can also provide lowest-cost long-term storage for electrical grids relying on renewable energy. Bloomberg New Energy Finance reports that clean hydrogen could cut up to 34% of global greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels and industry. Hydrogen can also reduce and potentially replace natural gas in all applications.
