Green hydrogen: the big challenge for French industry

2021-12-07T20:23:18.282Z


DECRYPTION - France wants to produce this carbon-free gas on its territory and not import it. It is still necessary to drastically reduce costs.


Produce steel without polluting.

Drive trucks without emitting greenhouse gases.

To green our societies, there is carbon-free electricity.

And then there is the so-called

“green”

hydrogen

.

This gas can be produced without emitting CO2 thanks to the electrolysis of water.

It represents the only solution known to date to get rid of CO2 emissions in the sectors emitting the most greenhouse gases.

Its qualities will make it one of the main

“energy vectors”

of tomorrow, as the engineers say.

France will devote 9 billion euros by 2030 to develop a French sector and encourage the use of green hydrogen.

Germany plans to invest just as much.

It is also one of the priorities of Brussels within the framework of the “Green Deal”, the plan to decarbonize the European economy.

The objectives set by Emmanuel Macron are very ambitious.
