The article discusses the importance of renewable and low-carbon hydrogen as part of the energy mix to achieve net-zero emissions globally. To fully realize the potential of hydrogen and its derivatives, the focus must be on safety, infrastructure development, decarbonizing production, and policy/strategy implementation. Safety concerns in large-scale hydrogen production highlight the need for industry collaboration to establish standards and ensure sustainability. The integration of hydrogen into the energy system requires the development of new infrastructure and coupling with renewable sources. Decarbonization of hydrogen production involves practices like electrolysis and carbon capture to enable sustainability. Additionally, long-term policy commitments and investments are crucial for the growth of the hydrogen economy. DNV plays a pivotal role in advising on the safe scaling of the hydrogen industry and provides insights and forecasts for the future of hydrogen production and consumption until 2050. Their expertise aims to support governments, developers, suppliers, investors, and the industry in navigating the technical, regulatory, and market aspects of hydrogen. By emphasizing safety, infrastructure, decarbonization, and policy, DNV aims to drive the hydrogen economy towards a sustainable and low-carbon future.
