Abstract

The buzz around green hydrogen is growing louder as a game-changer in the fight for a clean and sustainable energy future. This article dives into the coolest ways to create this eco-friendly fuel, exploring methods like splitting water with electricity, turning plant matter into gas, and even some cutting-edge techniques in the pipeline. This research dives deep into the latest breakthroughs in electrocatalyst and electrode materials, the secret ingredients that could supercharge hydrogen production, making it cleaner and cheaper. While good old water electrolysis using alkaline and PEM electrolyzers is the current champ, it's still a bit pricey and not as efficient as we'd like. Thankfully, innovative ways to design these "fuel-splitting champions" and integrate them with renewable energy sources are showing promise as solutions. But green hydrogen isn't just some cool science experiment; it's a potential game-changer for cleaning up our transportation, factories, and even the way we power our homes, all to fight climate change. The study also identifies areas where we need more research and ironing out of kinks before widespread use. It emphasizes the importance of keeping the innovation train rolling, smart investments in this technology, and government policies that give it a green light. By pushing green hydrogen forward, we can slash greenhouse gasses, become more energy-independent, and finally build that sustainable energy future we've all been dreaming of!
