Hydrogen economy, PGM-based tech offers decarbonised alternative for energy system – Amplats

With the world’s current energy system reliant on carbon-intensive fossil and other fuels, with the associated negative impact on climate change and global warming, Anglo American Platinum (Amplats) believes there is a decarbonised alternative in the form of the hydrogen economy and platinum group metals- (PGM-) based technologies. PGM technologies, CEO Chris Griffith explains in a presentation published on the Amplats website, on Tuesday, can be implemented through the use of proton exchange membrane fuel cells and electrolysis to unlock the versatility of hydrogen as an energy source.
