Hydrogen (H2) is lighter than air and more common than carbon, and green hydrogen burns with an exhaust of water vapor. Many see hydrogen as the future of decarbonizing electricity and transportation. Worldwide, companies are responding to pressure from governments to make more hydrogen gas. While it is a bit hard to handle, it is easy to love as a fuel source.
There are many “types” of hydrogen, and whether split from water by electricity or pulled from hydrocarbons, all are colorless. “Green hydrogen” refers to making it from zero-carbon electricity and water. Only about 4% is currently “green” however. The rest is either “brown hydrogen” (made from coal), “gray hydrogen” (made from methane), or “blue hydrogen,” (made from fossil fuels but with most of the CO2 captured and permanently sunk underground). The hydrogen boom is here and will be expanding significantly in the years to come.
A hydrogen expert or hydrogen consultant is someone who has a significant background in chemistry and significant experience with hydrogen and the production of electricity. The hydrogen expert can assist clients in a myriad of bioeconomy areas where hydrogen, hydrogen fuels cells, or hydrogen reactions are present. In matters involving bioeconomy litigation, hydrogen experts are often called upon to serve as expert witnesses to assist the attorneys with understanding the chemistry involved and the processes (and their failures) related to technical issues.
