A promising low-carbon energy sourceDeep underground, natural hydrogen can form when water reacts with iron-rich rocks from the Earth’s mantle. Seeps of natural hydrogen have already been measured at the surface at numerous locations worldwide. Newly developed PoNHy tool enables global explorationAs part of the study, the team developed the open-source tool PoNHy, short for Potential for Natural Hydrogen.
