    Big Ambitions: Next generation of hydrogen projects

    Green hydrogen has big ambitions to continuously increase efficiency and reduce costs. Building a robust hydrogen economy requires the development of supportive policies, regulations, standards and incentives to fuel investments and initiate the deployment of green hydrogen technologies. What developments are driving down costs? Can coordination of investment scale up infrastructure? What renewable intermittency challenges can be offset with storage and grid solutions?

    Making Low-carbon Gases: Ammonia, e-methane, e-NG

    Hydrogen

    Low carbon hydrogen derivatives have diverse applications within the energy transition. The hydrogen landscape has shown interest in diverse options, including gases such as ammonia, e-methane/e-NG, and carriers such as e-methanol and liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs). While these derivatives aid in solving the hydrogen transport hurdle, each individual carrier has their benefits and shortcomings. The debate is open for which derivative will prevail in different pathways.
