Hydrogen
Hydrogen as a fuel for a cleaner future
Climate change is already happening and is not a distant threat anymore. As a result of the Paris Agreement, more and more countries, regions, cities and the companies that serve them are establishing ambitious carbon neutrality targets and looking for solutions that will allow them to reach those goals – hydrogen is set to play an important role in a new energy system. Due to hydrogen’s versatility, it is proving to be a key enabler of the transition to low and zero-carbon energy to help meet climate change targets.

Industry feedstock
Trusted supplier of heavy industries, such as steel, chemicals and refining, Linde is well equipped to support the transition to a low carbon production.
The path to green hydrogen
Even though hydrogen is colorless, it is classified as
gray,
blue and green, depending on its carbon intensity.
Gray and blue hydrogen
are important steppingstones on
the path to green hydrogen as they will allow for the necessary frameworks and
infrastructures to be
developed while green hydrogen production reaches the necessary scale.
Green hydrogen is environmentally
friendly and generates no carbon dioxide emissions.
We can produce hydrogen from a range of feedstocks and natural resources. Using processes like steam reforming, we generate gray hydrogen from natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) or naphtha, which is the most common, and cheapest, hydrogen production process today. This process can be converted into blue hydrogen production by adding carbon capture and storage technologies. And, to generate green hydrogen we use electrolysis technology with renewable energy as feedstock. An alternative production method is steam methane reforming with biomass as feedstock.
