Besides my daily fundamental and applied research activities on green hydrogen production based on alkaline water electrolysis, I have been involved as well over the past 5 years in writing and reviewing some of the more techo-economical hydrogen reports from the International Energy Agency (IEA). In this seminar, I would like to share with you some of the less well-known and therefore much less-realised "facts" and "lies" about green hydrogen that can be extracted when reading these reports with a critical eye.
