Despite the recent upheaval in clean tech efforts, governments around the world are investing billions into green hydrogen. Analysts are calling it the missing piece in the clean energy puzzle, especially for industries that can’t run just on batteries or solar power.

It might come from a factory just outside Bengaluru where a little-known American startup called Ohmium is building sleek, modular machines, the size of a fridge. These are designed to split water into hydrogen and oxygen using nothing but renewable electricity.
