U.S. hydrogen production is poised to increase dramatically, due to incentives provided under the Inflation Reduction Act and demand-side growth as firms look to decarbonize their operations. Depending on how the hydrogen is produced, however, this production could have the perverse effect of increasing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This study provides a detailed survey of the state of domestic hydrogen production technologies and their GHG and other emissions. This study then surveys potential opportunities for reducing GHG emissions, including impacts on emissions, cost, and other operational factors.
