The hydrogen economy
Hydrogen is a future energy vector with a significant potential for the transfer and storage of renewable energy, and the supply of clean fuel for residential, industrial, and transport activity. Today, substantial quantities of hydrogen are produced and consumed in various industrial processes.
Hydrogen is an emerging energy vector, many components of which are mature technologies.
Current hydrogen technology is already able to provide advantages over other energy vectors and many of its challenges are being actively addressed by research and development.
Hydrogen can be derived, stored, and converted through various processes, each of which represents different levels of carbon intensity, efficiency, and end use functionality. Arup's five-minute guide looks at this energy vector in brief, including public perception, transportation and storage, as well as using hydrogen as a solution.
