Abstract
In the coming years, the global demand for hydrogen can be expected to grow gradually, with increasing pressure to produce without the use of natural gas or oil. As a result, possible ways to produce hydrogen that will have a lower carbon footprint are being sought. Apart from the use of renewable energy sources, nuclear energy appears to be another possible source. This article provides an overview of available and suitable technologies that use nuclear energy. These include in particular water electrolysis, thermochemical decomposition of water or hybrid cycles. The article also includes an overview of individual research programs in the world. A nuclear power plant, in conjunction with hydrogen production, could serve as a backup flexible energy source in addition to coal and gas power plants to stabilize fluctuations in the electrical transmission system due to the operation of renewable energy sources.
