Green hydrogen production and certification

Green hydrogen production and certification

Production of Electricity from Alternative Sources

The GNE delivers electricity obtained from alternative sources to the transformer with the GO (Guarantee of Origin).

Green Transformer

The transformer, an ISO 14000 certified legal entity, equips itself with the assets necessary for WBS 3 and certifies them.

Production of Green Hydrogen

The System, using the electricity owned by GO green and ISO 14000 assets, produces green hydrogen.

Storage and disposal

Hydrogen is either stored or sold, accompanied by its NFT.

The green hydrogen production process

Electrolysis is a process that consists in carrying out chemical transformations thanks to the supply of electrical energy; there is therefore the conversion of electrical energy into chemical energy.

The term "electrolysis" comes from Greek and means "to break with electricity", [2] given that in many cases subjecting a substance to electrolysis means breaking it down into its constituent elements. For example, through the electrolysis of water (whose molecule is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom) the elements of which it is composed are obtained, i.e., hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2).

In cases where electrolysis leads to the splitting of a substance into its constituent elements, we speak more precisely of electrolytic dissociation.

2H2O → 2H2+ O2

The process

The process of producing hydrogen through the electrolysis of water, therefore the breakdown of the water molecule into two atoms of hydrogen and one of oxygen, requires electrical energy, in proportion to the quantity of hydrogen you want to obtain.

First brick

The first brick, which must be verified as green, is therefore the origin of the electricity. If it comes from renewable sources (typically photovoltaic and wind) it has the characteristics to be defined as "green". The first input of the smart contract must therefore contain the information that the electricity used is green. To do this, the GSE (energy services manager) issues a GO (guarantee of origin) for the plants which certifies the production of electricity from renewable energy. First brick therefore: the GO of electricity.

Second brick

The "certified" electricity powers a machine (electrolyser) which, using purified water, produces hydrogen which is called "green". Second brick: machines (electrolysers) certified according to regulations.

Third brick

Finally, energy, electrolyser and hydrogen storage system are part of a system (typically of a legal type, a company, a consortium, a cooperative) which must have an adequate environmental certification (ISO 14000).

We certify the entire production process of Green Hydrogen.
