Abstract
Hydrogen is expected to play an important role in the future global energy mix <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref3" xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">[3]</xref> . It is a very interesting way to store energy, and it is a zero-emission fuel burned with oxygen. In past years, hydrogen has received high attention around the world as illustrated in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig1" xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">Figure 1(a)</xref> , where it can be seen that an increasing number of countries adopted, or are to adopt, general strategies for hydrogen production <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref1" xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">[1]</xref> . At present, a stable and well-defined policy framework is needed to better define rules and regulations for green hydrogen standards that can be agreed around the world <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref4" xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">[4]</xref> .
