GREEN HYDROGEN AS A RENEWABLE ENERGY STORAGE TECHNOLOGY
Renewable energy generation can range from surplus to insufficient in a single day, as producers are well aware. The solution is reliable, stable, and long-term energy storage: store surplus energy during peak production and distribute it at peak consumption.
For renewable energy storage, rechargeable batteries are often employed. Batteries, on the other hand, are only suitable for short-term storage. The best solution for extended storage—from overnight to seasonal—is hydrogen supported by fuel cells.
The hydrogen is produced using low-cost renewable surplus power, then stored and converted back to electricity using fuel cells—a zero-emission and time-proven technique.

Major Market Highlights
- GAIL (India) Ltd., a state-owned firm, said in October 2021 that it intends to build India's largest green hydrogen-production facility to supplement its natural gas operations with carbon-free fuel. The plant will have a capacity of 10MW, making it the country's largest to date. GAIL intends to sell the hydrogen it generates to fertiliser manufacturing plants, which are required by law to use hydrogen as a fuel source.
- Hy Stor Energy, an American start-up, revealed intentions in October 2021 to create a USD 3 billion green hydrogen production and storage hub in Mississippi, which will be ten times larger than any other project in the country. Using solar-powered electrolysis, the Mississippi Clean Hydrogen Hub (MCHH) will produce roughly 110,000 tonnes of green hydrogen yearly in its first phase.
