Precious metals remain key to scaling the hydrogen economy
Original: Scaling the hydrogen economy: Why precious metals still matter—and how to use them effectively
Industry commentary argues that precious metals such as platinum and iridium remain essential to hydrogen technologies, particularly electrolysers and fuel cells, even as production scales up. The discussion focuses on how companies can use these scarce materials effectively, through efficiency gains, recycling and careful supply planning, as the hydrogen economy expands and demand for catalyst materials grows.
Why now: Growing investment in hydrogen projects is renewing attention on the limited supply of precious metals needed for the technology.
