Draft DOE National Clean Hydrogen Strategy and Roadmap Details Opportunities in Hydrogen Sector

November 7, 2022

Hydrogen will play a key role in addressing the climate crisis, supporting a transition to net zero, and achieving a sustainable clean energy future. As a versatile energy carrier and chemical feedstock, hydrogen offers many advantages and an ability to leverage renewables, nuclear, and fossil fuels with carbon capture and storage. It can also be used as a fuel or feedstock for applications that do not have competitive and efficient clean alternatives.

In September 2022, the US Department of Energy (DOE) released a draft report providing an overview of hydrogen production, transport, storage, and use in the United States and the opportunities for clean hydrogen to help decarbonize and reduce emissions. Under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, DOE was required to develop and release a technologically and economically feasible national clean hydrogen strategy and roadmap to facilitate widescale production, processing, delivery, storage, and use of clean hydrogen. DOE is required to update this strategy and roadmap every three years.

The draft report identifies several opportunities for clean hydrogen to support the transition to net zero.
