🧠 What It Means
Includes green hydrogen and some forms of blue hydrogen with full carbon capture.
“Zero-emission” may cover Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions depending on the standard.
Often verified via GHG lifecycle analysis (LCA).
❗ Key Challenges
True zero-emission is hard to achieve at scale.
Often greenwashed without proper certification.
Requires clean energy, clean water, and ethical supply chains.
