The technoeconomic assessment of the hydrogen fuel chain
Options for hydrogen fuel chain are compared with the existing petroleum-based fuel chain for transportation. The criteria used are the life cycle cost (Rs/km), Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions (g/km) and Nonrenewable Energy (NRE) consumption (MJ/km). Four hydrogen production methods, one hydrogen transport method, three hydrogen storage methods and two on-board energy conversion methods are ...

Scenarios for the role of hydrogen in a future energy system based on renewable energy
An all-renewable energy system for a group of North European countries is investigated by temporal simulation of the demand-supply matching for various system configurations. The role of hydrogen technologies for energy storage and fuel cell applications is studied and applied to both stationary and transportation sectors. It is shown that there is scope for considerable amounts of energy trade ...

Hydrogen storage systems for automotive applications: project StorHy
Around two thirds of world's oil usage is associated with transportation with road vehicles consuming around 40%. Also, transportation accounts for around 25% of greenhouse emissions worldwide, with around 90% coming from road vehicles. This situation is further complicated by the fact that oil reserves are running out. For this reason, the automotive industry supported by relevant governing ...

Annual PV O&M costs set to double by 2024; US pulls tariff exemptions for bifacial panels
Annual solar O&M costs set to hit $9 billion by 2024: WoodMac Annual global solar operations and maintenance (O&M) costs will double from around $4.5 billion in 2019 to $9.4 billion in 2024, as installed PV capacity grows, Wood Mackenzie Power and Renewables said in a new report. By 2024, inverter replacement costs alone will hit around $1.2 billion, representing around 13% of O&M ...

Long-term global vision of nuclear-produced hydrogen
Nuclear energy is the number one candidate to provide the backbone of primary energy procurement for humanity in the present century and beyond. Uranium fuel is abundant, and could become unlimited in the scheme proposed here, making nuclear energy sort of renewable. However, the only vector of nuclear energy now is electricity, which may finally consume half the primary energy input. The market ...

E-fuels are crucial to sustainable heavy transport
Synthetic fuels produced from electricity, or e-fuels, will play an important role in reducing CO2 emissions from long-distance truck transport, aviation and shipping. For long-distance freight transport and shipping, synthetic methanol, diesel and LNG (Liquified Natural Gas) are the most attractive options; for deep-sea shipping, synthetic ammonia is also an important option. For aviation, only ...

Hydrogen plays a key role in the European Green Deal
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen launched the European Green Deal last Wednesday, on 11 December. The goal is ambitious. If the European Green Deal becomes reality, the European Union will become climate neutral by 2050. To reach the goal, the EU will have to overturn almost every policy area. Europe inevitably needs hydrogen to reach this arduous goal. Looking at the ...

Producing Hydrogen via Electrolysis
Electrolysis has been gaining momentum in recent times as an option for carbon-free hydrogen production from both nuclear and renewable sources. Electrolysis uses electricity to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen inside a unit called an electrolyzer. This article will outline the process of electrolysis, how it works, and its ...

Portable biogas bottling plant: a practical approach for using biogas as transportation fuel in rural areas
Biogas contains about 65% methane, 30-35% carbon dioxide, traces of hydrogen sulphide and moisture. It has been observed that diesel engines get severely damaged when operated on biogas for long duration. Presence of these corrosive gases make biogas unsuitable for transportation application. By removing CO2 and trace acidic gases like H2S and moisture, biogas can be converted into natural gas ...

EU to reallocate €115m for energy efficiency projects
The EU has approved reforms that will free up €115m stimulus cash to be reallocated for energy efficiency projects with an impact on economic recovery. The Industry, Research and Energy Committee of the European Parliament approved reforms yesterday to EU rules on financial assistance that will free up about €115m (£95.6m) in otherwise unspent funds. The EU funds could be used to ...
