description Climate change increasing environmental acts are placing the force of pressure on the energy sector to divest from fossil fuels, with the transportation sector expected to be the most affected. Electric vehicles and hydrogen are two current alternative energy sources. Conventional hydrogen production processes are reliant on fossil fuels and emit considerable amounts of CO2. To manufacture non pollute hydrogen in the world, this article investigates several strategies to combine geothermal mechanics into H2 manufacturing. Because of its enormous solar resources, Africa has the largest participant in the H2 market. Thermal hydrogen, on the other hand, is at a pricing disadvantage to traditional production technologies due to the high expenses involved with solar energy. Solar hydrogen is not likely to reach significant market penetration in the next 10 years, but price reductions owing to improved production technologies and bigger manufacturing quantities may decrease the delay in the long run.
