Life cycle assessment of hydrogen production via electrolysis – a review

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
In this article, the authors reviewed twenty-one studies that address the LCA of hydrogen production technologies, a majority of them employing electrolytic technologies, and concluded that electrolysis using wind or hydropower generated electricity is the best hydrogen production technology compared to those using conventional grid electricity mix or fossil fuel feedstocks.
