But while Neom’s $500 billion price tag prompts questions about whether it will go ahead exactly as planned, the hydrogen effort doesn’t depend on the megacity’s overall success. On the contrary, green hydrogen is produced by using renewable energy rather than fossil fuels, in a process that is called electrolysis.
