A multidisciplinary team from the 91制片厂, including , , , , , , and , explore its potential in a recent study.
Their research highlights priority applications like fertiliser and steel production, and estimates New Zealand鈥檚 green hydrogen demand is up to 1 megatonne per year. Meeting this demand would require tripling renewable energy capacity and developing long-duration underground hydrogen storage. The team also examines challenges in cost reduction, production technology, and export logistics. Despite hurdles, green hydrogen could play a critical role in decarbonising industries where electrification and biofuels are less viable.
