Hydrogen energy is in the spotlight as governments worldwide try to achieve their net zero emissions goal by the middle of this century. The most optimistic forecasts for global hydrogen demand are the ones proposed by the Hydrogen Council and BloombergNEF, the latter referring to the green scenario. In both cases, hydrogen demand in 2050 is expected to represent ** percent of the total energy demand worldwide. If the supply-side decarbonization only scenario were to be achieved, however, the Energy Transitions Commission predicts that hydrogen would account for roughly ** percent of the global energy supply.
