DW Planet A12 min

Why watch it?

Is hydrogen the fuel of the future or oil and gas industry hype? DW Planet A reporter Malte Rohwer-Kahlmann works through what hydrogen is, where it is used, the so-called hydrogen rainbow of colors, and why it is not a solution on its own. Sources listed in the description include the IEA Global Hydrogen Review 2021, ICCT reports on ships and aircraft, and a study on blue hydrogen emissions. A quick, critical introduction from February 2022.

This introduction is based on the video’s YouTube description and catalogue details.

What you will learn

The viewer can recognize the uses and color classification of hydrogen and distinguish the arguments for and against its role in reaching net zero.

IPEC Expert Opinion

Doğukan Ünal · Chemist, hydrogen technology expert ·

A journalistic introduction that takes a critical view of hydrogen and lists its sources in the description. The colour classification is easy to grasp, but in regulation it is increasingly being replaced by carbon intensity thresholds. The climate impact of blue hydrogen depends on the capture rate and methane leakage. Dated February 2022; the source data should be updated with later IEA reports.
