This paper presents a thorough critical literature review aimed at understanding the challenges associated with freshwater supply rapidly growing global hydrogen economies. The has been prompted by fact that production projected for 2030 will create least an additional demand of 2.1 billion cubic meters freshwater, which needs to be addressed support sustainable development emerging key solutions explored this study include seawater and wastewater treatment methods large-scale generation, along newly introduced technique direct seawater-fed electrolysis. Prior research indicates desalination technologies, including reverse osmosis membrane distillation, also offer promising avenues costs comparable other techniques. Additionally, low-temperature such as distillation could play significant role in electrolysis, underscoring importance exploring waste recovery opportunities within system (e.g., fuel cell heat recovery). identifies gaps need overcome enhance sustainability techno-economic viability energy systems.

Due to the increasing greenhouse gas emissions, as well due rapidly use of renewable energy sources in electricity generation over last years, interest hydrogen is rising again. Hydrogen can be used a storage for balancing whole systems, and contributing decarbonization system, especially industry transport sector. The major objective this paper discuss various ways production depending on primary used. Moreover, economic environmental performance three colors, barriers faster deployment fuel cell vehicles, are analyzed. conclusion that full benefits highly dependent methods Only green with from wind, PV hydro has truly low emissions. All other like blue CCUS or electrolysis using grid have substantially higher coming close grey production. Another it important introduce an international market lower costs produce where conditions best. Finally, open question remaining whether – including all external carriers, any color may become economically competitive sector system. future success very technological development resulting cost reductions, priorities corresponding policy framework. framework should support shift hydrogen.

Energy supplies that are safe, environmentally friendly, dependable, and cost-effective important for society's long-term growth improved living standards, though political, social, economic barriers may inhibit their availability. Constantly increasing energy demand is induced by substantial population development, putting an strain on fossil fuel management sustainability, which account a major portion of this rising and, moreover, creates difficulties because greenhouse gas emissions the depletion resources. Such impediments necessitate global shift away from traditional sources toward renewables. Aside its role, H2 viewed as promising vector gaining international attention path, it provides numerous benefits in use case scenarios unlike other synthesized carbon-based fuels, could be carbon-free or perhaps even negative life-cycle criterion.
