Researchers have achieved a major milestone in the transition to clean energy by discovering a method to produce “green hydrogen” directly from seawater. This new approach uses solar-powered electrolysis to split seawater molecules into hydrogen and oxygen without relying on fresh water or fossil fuels.
The potential implications are enormous: coastal cities and industries could harness unlimited seawater resources, coupled with sunlight, to generate hydrogen fuel. This vastly reduces pollution and boosts energy resilience. In addition to creating hydrogen, the process also creates clean potable water.
The advancements are still in their early stages, but the researchers' methods and results show that the process of turning seawater into hydrogen can be done at industrial scale.
In the long run, the ability to generate green hydrogen from seawater could help cities and companies reduce pollution, strengthen energy independence, and protect human health by cutting smog-forming emissions.
