Renewable hydrogen and hydrogen-derived commodities – such as ammonia, methanol and e-kerosene — are expected to play an important role in the transition to low-carbon energy because they are essential to decarbonize sectors such as heavy industry and transport. Jointly produced by the...

The transition to a hydrogen-based economy is gaining momentum in both Germany and the European Union (EU). Used as an energy carrier, hydrogen holds the promise of freeing hard-to-decarbonise sectors like heavy industry, aviation, and maritime trade from their emissions. At the same time,...

Task 1 of the tender "Technical Assistance to Generate Synergies with Members States and Regions" is dedicated to the assessment of various policy and funding initiatives to identify gaps and potential for synergies between national and/or local hydrogen strategies with the current Clean...

A methodology for assessing the sustainability of hydrogen production using solid fuels is introduced, in which three sustainability dimensions (ecological, sociological and technological) are considered along with ten indicators for each dimension. Values for each indicator are assigned on a...

With the alarming rate of growth in vehicle population and travel demand, the energy consumption has increased significantly contributing to the rise of GHG emissions. Therefore, the development of a viable environmentally benign technology/fuel, which minimises both global and local...

The use of hydrogen/methane mixtures with low methane contents as fuels for internal combustion engines (ICEs) may help to speed up the development of the hydrogen energy market and contribute to the decarbonization of the transportation sector. In this work, a commercial 1.4L four-cylinder...

The increasing awareness on the risky state of conventional energy sources in terms of future energy supply security and health of environment has promoted the research activities on alternative energy systems. However, due to the fact that the power production of main alternative sources such...

Transformation towards sustainable energy system requires substantial changes in current energy production and consumption patterns. This paper addresses system transition as a valuable approach in contributing to these changes. The main purpose of the paper is to develop and apply a framework...

In hydrogen-related energy technologies, materials selection is critical as hydrogen tends to decrease the mechanical stability of the metallic alloys. Amorphous alloys are known to exhibit high hydrogen solubility and significant embrittlement resistance. The current work is focussed towards...

In this paper, economically favorable, supported CoCl2 catalysts were produced for NaBH4 dehydrogenation. Among the used supports, diatomite and γ-Al2O3 supports show great stability with CoCl2 and do not break up during experiments some of which lasts 3000min. Slow and continuous hydrogen...

Recently, it has been reported that United Arab Emirates is considered one of the highest energy consumers per capita in the world. Consequently, environmental pollution and carbon emission has been a major challenge facing the country over the past several years due to unprecedented high...

This paper focuses on the visions incorporated by the Hydrogen Road in Norway (HyNor) project. This is a large-scale project that aims to demonstrate real life implementation of hydrogen in the transport sector in Norway. The starting point of the analysis is that visions play an important role...

Partial use of alternative energy exemplified by hydrogen energy is expected to reduce negative impacts associated with the current dependence on fossil energy and bring net gain to regional and national economies. Hydrogen has emission levels that are far below the existing and possibly, future...

A preliminary solar–hydrogen energy system for the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has been proposed to bridge the gap between oil and natural gas demand and supply in the 21st century, and to meet the country's share in the energy market. In our study, we quantitatively consider the benefits of...
