Pink Hydrogen

About Pink Hydrogen:

• It is generated through electrolysis powered by nuclear energy. It can also be referred to as purple hydrogen or red hydrogen.
• In addition, the very high temperatures from nuclear reactors could be used in other hydrogen productions by producing steam for more efficient electrolysis or fossil gas-based steam methane reforming.
• Nuclear power offers significant advantages for pink hydrogen production, including reducing production costs and emissions, making it a sustainable and more cost-effective alternative to conventional methods.
• Applications: Pink hydrogen is a promising replacement for fossil fuels in the cement industry, steel industry, aviation and heavy transportation, as it can be used as a feedstock and energy source with no greenhouse gas emissions.

What is Electrolysis?

• It is a promising option for carbon-free hydrogen production from renewable and nuclear resources.
• Electrolysis is the process of using electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. This reaction takes place in a unit called an electrolyzer.
