| Hydrogen can potentially be burned very cleanly, producing only heat and water.

|
| Brown hydrogen is hydrogen produced in a relatively polluting way, using thermal coal in the production process.
| | The executive office of the UK Statistics Authority (a UK government department) responsible for the collection of various categories of financial and demographic statistics, including census information and inflation indices. |
| | |
| | |
| In this context, the term "brown" refers to the heavy carbon impact of using thermal coal (also known as a black or brown coal) to produce this hydrogen.
| |
| | |
| The hydrogen itself is physically and chemically identical to hydrogen produced using other methods.

| :"It can be used in a fuel cell or combusted in a boiler, turbine or engine to generate heat or electricity.
| |
| | |
| :It can be stored in various ways, including at very large scales, and be transported to different end users, in much the same way as natural gas or liquid fuels....
| |
| | |
| :However, hydrogen can only be considered as a decarbonisation option if it is readily available, at the right price, the right volume and with sufficient confidence it is low carbon.
| |
| | |
| :In addition, potential users must be able to purchase hydrogen-using equipment, with proper assurances about safety and reliability."
