Few recent years has shown that hydrogen technology has a good chance to replace petroleum technology in automotive sector. However, hydrogen in pure form practically does not occur on Earth. That is why H2 form is used only as an energy carrier and it must be produced using another source of energy form water or hydrocarbon fuels. In this paper short overview of hydrogen production technology has been presented, with energy and exergy analysis of four chosen technologies. Water and steam splitting using PEM as efficient and technically the simplest methods, SOEC as an industrial high effective thermoelectric process and thermochemical decomposition as non-electric alternative.
