wodorowym

Wodorowy is a Polish adjective formed from the noun wodór (hydrogen). It is used to describe things related to hydrogen, such as technologies, fuels, energy sources or processes that rely on hydrogen. The term appears in scientific, industrial and public discourse, often in contexts discussing the energy transition and zero-emission solutions.

Common uses include napęd wodorowy (hydrogen propulsion), energia wodorowa (hydrogen energy), and paliwo wodorowe (hydrogen fuel). A related expression is ogniwo paliwowe wodorowe or simply ogniwo paliwowe, referring to a hydrogen-based fuel cell. The adjective also appears in phrases describing research, production or infrastructure, for example projekty wodorowe or technologia wodorowa.

Grammatically, wodorowy agrees with the noun it modifies. In masculine singular nominative it is wodorowy; in instrumental singular masculine it becomes wodorowym, as in z napędem wodorowym. Feminine forms include wodorowa (nominative) and wodorową (instrumental), while neuter is wodorowe. Understanding these forms helps when constructing phrases in different cases, for example energia wodorowa, z energią wodorową, or napędem wodorowym.

In contemporary Polish, the term is widely used in discussions about sustainable energy, automotive engineering and environmental policy. While related terms such as energetyka wodorowa or technologia wodorowa describe broader fields, wodorowy remains the core descriptor for hydrogen-related aspects.
