The word derives from hydro- (water) and -geny (origin or production), echoing the etymology of hydrogen, but hydrogeny itself is infrequently used outside certain circles.
The scope typically includes the chemical behavior of hydrogen and its isotopes, production methods, storage and
Applications of the broader concept align with hydrogen’s role in energy systems and industry. These include
