Nuclear Based Hydrogen Production
While hydrogen has received much attention
recently, there are few industrial facilities for large-scale
hydrogen production [Reference 8]. Nuclear power offers a
unique solution to hydrogen production processing, with
several distinct advantages:
• The new hydrogen production technologies powered
with nuclear energy offer increases in efficiency and
dramatic reductions in pollution, when compared
with traditional hydrogen production.
• Nuclear-based hydrogen production potentially
satisfies each of the five criteria for a future energy
carrier discussed earlier.
• Using nuclear energy offers advantages in each
phase of the lifecycle of an energy medium:
collection, production, transmission and distribution,
and end-use. Production via nuclear is reliable and
safe.
• And, it appears to be economically viable
The fundamental reactions that make electrolysis
possible are the half reactions of the water ions. These are
shown below. Production facilities for hydrogen (or
oxygen) via electrolysis use solutions of various
compositions (generally salts) to increase the speed of the
reaction, since it is not very favorable in pure water
(alternatively, membrane-based technologies may also be
used, however, these are not examined in this paper).
2H3O+ + 2e- → H2 + 2H2O cathode
3H2O → ½ O2 + 2H2O+ + 2e-
anode
H2O → H2 + ½ O2

Answer:
It 's created using steam methane reforming, which basically uses high temperatures to convert steam and methane into hydrogen gas and carbon dioxide.
hope it helps :)
