Green Technology Book

The Green Technology Book takes a fresh look at the state of play of technologies responding to some of the most critical environmental challenges of our time.

How can innovation and technology help us solve environmental problems? What solutions do we have for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to climate change? The Green Technology Book shows how healthy innovation ecosystems supported by efficient intellectual property systems are generating and disseminating a wealth of green technology solutions.

Drawing on our free, online WIPO GREEN Database of Needs and Green Technologies - whether proven, frontier or still on the horizon - the digital book offers practical and inspiring examples of green technologies that can help everyone address environmental challenges, reduce emissions and adapt to the reality of climate change.

Many more technologies are available in the Green Technology Book collection in the database with direct links to the technology owners. We invite technology owners as well as solution seekers to join our quest for promoting innovation and technology solutions by uploading to the database.

Hydrogen Refueling Station Using Renewable Energy

NovEMBER 30, 2023
In this technology, a medium-scale water electrolyzer is added to a hydrogen refueling station that supplies fossil fuel-derived hydrogen. Before its use, the fossil fuel-derived hydrogen is mixed with hydrogen produced by water electrolysis using renewable energy. This technology will expand the use of low-carbon hydrogen.
