Description

There is growing interest in the hydrogen economy and businesses that deploy hydrogen worldwide. The desire to tackle the adverse effects of climate change, achieve a green transition and deep decarbonisation, ambitious future net-zero targets of numerous countries, increasing pressure for energy security, and being energy self-reliant are reasons behind this interest. However, hydrogen is not a new phenomenon. Nowadays, many people ask if the hydrogen economy has a future. The answer is not straightforward as the hydrogen economy has numerous different application area.

Green hydrogen is a developing as bright opportunity for engineering and construction. Thirty countries have prepared strategic vision for developing green hydrogen as a n alternative to fossil fuel. Many companies in differing countries have setup demonstration projects. Every other day new Green Hydrogen projects are being announced all over the world. In fact, now there a quite a few projects actively being developed by EPC contractors.


This course has been designed to provide a kickstart to the students who are interested in taking up a career in this field.

The instructor has been involved in the construction, commissioning and operation of alkaline water electrolysis.
