Could trash-to-energy technology feed hydrogen demand? Still, there is potential for clean — low- or zero-carbon — hydrogen to take off, energy experts believe. The annual demand could reach 19,120,458,891 tons by then, representing a tenfold increase from 2015 to 2050. Is this the best second life for trash?
