Hydrogen vs Electrification: Could hydrogen and electrification have a symbiotic relationship?
than being competitors could hydrogen infrastructure complement electric vehicle infrastructure? Whilst light vehicles may not be the pathway for hydrogen, heavy trucks are a little more difficult and therefore in the future it is likely that an alternative will be needed such as hydrogen for those harder to decarbonise part of the fleet. Continue reading Hydrogen vs Electrification: Could hydrogen and electrification have a symbiotic relationship?

Why would you use hydrogen for power generation?
My question was particularly focused on why you would make blue hydrogen (hydrogen made from methane gas, with the carbon dioxide captured and stored underground) or green hydrogen (made from renewable electricity) to then combust it in a power station.

Habits, Covid19 and Energy
Habits become super interesting when you think about them in the wider context of Covid-19. Since March 2020 we have all to some degree had our worlds turn on their heads. Habits we have carefully maintained (both good and bad) were deconstructed overnight Continue reading Habits, Covid19 and Energy

Heat remains a hugely important topic in decarbonisation. ‘A heat network provides heating and hot water to an apartment, commercial site or series of buildings close together. It can also provide cooling. There … Continue reading Heat networks
