Major international shipping companies like Maersk have committed to decarbonizing their operations. How can renewable hydrogen help in that process? What climate-neutral fuels (or energy carriers) are envisioned for maritime uses?

by admin | Mar 29, 2021 | Potential Applications

Hydrogen and ammonia made from hydrogen are definitely under consideration by the shipping industry. Other possibilities exist such as synthesized methanol, formic acid,...

What current fossil-sourced fuels could be replaced with drop-in replacement fuels derived from renewable hydrogen?

Virtually any fossil fuel can be synthesized from hydrogen plus a source of...

Does hydrogen offer a possible pathway to fossil-free drop-in replacement fuels for our current fleet of vehicles and industrial plants?

by admin | Mar 28, 2021 | Potential Applications

Hydrogen fuel cell systems can be a drop-in solution to battery electric vehicles (there is a business in converting battery forklifts and battery drones to hydrogen). Other than those, with the possible exception of diesel engines, hydrogen is generally not a drop-in...

Can renewable hydrogen scale up rapidly enough to provide a significant climate benefit?

by admin | Mar 28, 2021 | Potential Applications

Yes. In the last two years manufacturers have announced new manufacturing capacity being added to more than double the world capacity for making electrolyzers. Germany has announced a 9 billion euro investment in hydrogen infrastructure, and other countries in Europe...

It is commonly stated that renewable (i.e., biogenic) natural gas is not scalable to play a significant role in decarbonizing the economy. Are there factors that similarly limit renewable hydrogen’s potential to play a significant role in decarbonization?

No. The limiting factor may be the rapidity with which manufacturers can expand their electrolyzer manufacturing capacity....
