Balkan countries look to the hydrogen boom to cut emissions

A discovery of hydrogen beneath the Bulqize chrome mine in Albania has stirred optimism for the region’s transition towards cleaner energy.  This revelation has prompted discussions about the potential for hydrogen to play a significant role in reducing emissions from the region.

Despite past tragedies associated with gas pockets in the mine, a recent study published in the Science journal unveiled a reservoir containing between 5,000 and 50,000 tons of hydrogen locked beneath the surface.
