Many of New Zealand’s geological processes create exactly the kinds of geological settings where natural hydrogen can form and accumulate.
- Professor in Geosciences, University of Canterbury

To develop a hydrogen economy at the scale of Aotearoa’s climate ambitions would require about a quarter of the country’s current energy use and swallow enormous amounts of water.
