Chevron Corp. (CVX) on Wednesday said it joined the Hydrogen Council, a "global advisory body providing a long-term vision for the role of hydrogen in the energy transition."

Chevron said its "knowledge and experience with hydrogen complements the collaborative strength of the Council." Michael Wirth, the company's chairman and chief executive, said, "Our support for the Hydrogen Council reflects our view that hydrogen can play a role in a lower carbon future as a transportation fuel, an industrial feedstock and an energy storage medium."

Chevron said it uses hydrogen at its refineries to refine fuel and for other chemical processes, and has run hydrogen filling stations at fleet operator sites.

Other members of the Hydrogen Council include Airbus, Royal Dutch Shell, The Linde Group, Toyota, Southern California Gas Co. and EDF Energy.
