After all, a substantial fraction of global carbon emissions arise from the production, transportation, and consumption of fossil fuels. Hydrogen is increasingly being viewed as an important tool for reducing carbon emissions, because the use of hydrogen for energy generates no direct carbon dioxide emissions.
