Hydrogen presents an opportunity for Africa to not only decarbonise its own energy use and enable clean access all, but also export renewable energy. This paper developed a framework assessing resources hydrogen production provides new critical analysis as how what role can play in the complex African landscape. The regional solar, wind, CSP, bio potential ranges from 366 1311 Gt/year, 162 1782...

BACKGROUND The future hydrogen economy offers a compelling energy vision, but there are four main obstacles: hydrogen production, storage, and distribution, as well as fuel cells. Hydrogen production from inexpensive abundant renewable biomass can produce cheaper hydrogen, decrease reliance on fossil fuels, and achieve zero net greenhouse gas emissions, but current chemical and biological means...

Scenarios, roadmaps and similar foresight methods are used to cope with uncertainty in areas with long planning horizons, such as energy policy, and research into the future of hydrogen energy is no exception. Such studies can play an important role in the development of shared visions of the future: creating powerful expectations of the potential of emerging technologies and mobilising resourc...

Abstract Hydrogen is recognised as an important future energy vector for applications in many sectors. indirect climate gas which induces perturbations of methane, ozone, and stratospheric water vapour, three potent greenhouse gases. Using data from a state-of-the-art global numerical model, here we calculate the hydrogen metrics function considered time-horizon derive 100-year Global Warming P...

In this paper, we compare the hydrogen economy policy of China and Korea. We point out that the two countries have their respective advantages such as strong motivation from necessity, national support by law and diversity in regional policies for China and leading strength from government, academic support by universities and participating energy of enterprises for Korea. Also China and Korea ...

The hydrogen economy presents an appealing energy future but its implementation must solve numerous problems ranging from low-cost sustainable production, high-density storage, costly infrastructure, to eliminating safety concern. The use of renewable carbohydrate as a high-density hydrogen carrier and energy source for hydrogen production is possible due to emerging cell-free synthetic biology...
