Efficient and sustainable methods of clean fuel production are needed in all countries of the world in the face of depleting oil reserves and the need to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. With hydrogen technology we can significantly reduce harmful emissions in air and water. However, a key missing element is a large-scale method of hydrogen production from water. As a carbon-based technology, the predominant existing process (steam-methane reforming (SMR)) is unsuitable regarding global warming, icreased world population, etc. This paper focuses on a production of hydrogen in connection with a thermal power plant. We will show the technologies which allow the coupling between a thermal power plant and hydrogen technologies.
