It can be produced by electrolysis, separating the H2 from oxygen in water, and by the more carbon-intensive method of steam reforming of natural gas. To be truly green or zero-ca rbon hydrogen, the electrolysis would need to be powered by carbon-free resources such as renewables or nuclear. Hydrogen has no carbon atom.
