'Blue hydrogen has large climatic consequences. We see no way that blue hydrogen can be considered 'green,'' says the report.
While celebrated as a climate victory by the Biden administration, the large infrastructure bill passed in the U.S. Senate this week includes billions of dollars of funding toward 'blue hydrogen,' which new research published Thursday finds is more polluting than coal. The $550 billion bipartisan infrastructure package passed Tuesday includes $8 billion to develop 'clean hydrogen' via the creation of four regional hubs.
According to a statement from the researchers: An ecologically friendly 'green' hydrogen does exist, but it remains a small sector and it has not been commercially realized. Green hydrogen is achieved when water goes through electrolysis and the water is separated into hydrogen and oxygen.
