Green or decarbonized hydrogen is one of the keys to the energy transition, despite the many detractors of this energy vector.
For a fairly simple reason, in a number of essential areas of activity, heavy industry and long-distance transport (particularly air and sea), there are no other solutions for doing without fossil fuels.
That said, green hydrogen is an energy vector produced with decarbonized electricity, the production of which is both limited and expensive.
But the whole equation could change if geological or white hydrogen, produced naturally in the subsoil and which evaporates quickly into the atmosphere, particularly given the lightness of the molecule, was exploitable in quantity.
This is the bet that billionaires Bill Gates (Microsoft) and Jeff Bezos (Amazon) are attempting. with the young American company Koloma. The company has raised more than 305 million dollars since its creation.
