In the future, hydrogen produced through water electrolysis is expected to be used to store energy as a way of compensating for solar or wind power’s intermittent output. In addition to being a carrier of energy, hydrogen could also be a source of energy, and its combustion would emit water (H 2 O) instead of CO 2.
