Digital Twins Give Hydrogen a Greener Path to Growth

Cars That Think

Hydrogen has great promise as a low-emission fuel source. It burns clean, generating only water as a by-product, and when it’s produced through electrolysis by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen, the entire life cycle can be very environmentally friendly. But that’s the point—that you can.make it possible with this digital twin.”
