Q3 2021

Increasing concerns about environmental pollution related to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is promoting the energy transition toward more sustainable energy production systems. These systems are based on renewable energy exploitation and circular economy principles.

Meeting the anticipated 10-fold increase in hydrogen requirements by 2050 has led to many studies evaluating the most techno-economic means to achieve this target.

Hydrogen enjoys enormous attention and acceptance as an energy carrier and a carbon-free solution for the different sectors.

The industry report, “Roadmap to a U.S. hydrogen economy,” released in October 2020, details how the U.S. can expand its global energy leadership by scaling up activity in the rapidly evolving H2 economy.

With its highly developed industrial infrastructure and growing renewable energy sector offering a wealth of opportunities to produce low-carbon H2, North America is ripe to join the H2 frenzy taking place in the Europe and Asia-Pacific regions.

Among the many challenges the world will face in the coming years, there is arguably none greater than reversing the tide of climate change.

H2Tech’s first H2Tech Solutions virtual conference, the must-attend event for sustainable H2 technology, was held on 18–19 May 2021.

Hydrogen storage in solution-mined caverns can provide utility-scale, long-duration energy storage to support grid integration of renewable energy generation and H2 fuel management.

The international hydrogen economy is set to boom in the next few years with Europe emerging as the clear leader in investment and policy support for the sector.

The promise of safe and reliable hydrogen generation and distribution can be both exciting and daunting.

The UK has committed to drastically reducing its emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases and achieving net zero emissions by 2050.

Gulf Energy Information’s Global Energy Infrastructure (GEI) Database and Construction Boxscore Database are tracking 413 active and operating carbon-neutral and low-carbon H2 production and utilization projects around the world.
