报告摘要：

Hydrogen is produced mostly for chemical industry such as synthesis of ammonia and methanol. In Japan, about 1 % of produce hydrogen is commercially sold to the open market. This means hydrogen is NOT produced for energy but for raw materials. 

At present, hydrogen is produced using the reform technology for methane and light hydrocarbons. However, hydrogen can be produced from various resources using various technologies, which is one of the major merits of hydrogen. When the hydrogen economy is realized we need these various kinds of methods to produce enough amount of hydrogen as an energy carrier (secondary energy). 

In this lecture, these subjects will be introduced but discussion with audience must be the most important part.
