Addressing climate change requires not only a clean electrical grid, but also a clean fuel to reduce emissions from industrial heat, long-haul heavy transportation, and long-duration energy storage. An H 2 economy already exists, but it involves lots of greenhouse gas emissions. Almost all of it is based on H 2 from methane.
