What is renewable hydrogen?

• Hydrogen is a carrier of energy
• Renewable hydrogen is produced by purifying seawater, then separating the hydrogen and oxygen via electrolysis
• The process of separation is powered by solar or wind energy
• The hydrogen becomes a vehicle for storing renewable energy such as solar or wind
• It is converted into transportable forms for export
