Could trash-to-energy technology feed hydrogen demand? Green hydrogen — made by splitting water’s hydrogen and oxygen using electricity produced by renewable sources — is a small fish in the "energies pond." Hydrogen from waste is an even smaller fish than hydrogen from renewable energy. Arlene Karidis. Wed, 07/15/2020 - 01:00.
