Hydrogen - Technology, Economics and Business Cases

Asia-Pacific is set to be the largest and fastest-growing Hydrogen market globally. This growth is driven by decarbonisation of energy-use, ammonia production, and rising demand for fuel cell electric vehicles. Hydrogen as a fuel has outstanding energy carrying capacity and many application possibilities ranging from Petroleum refinery, Ammonia and Methanol Production, Transportation, and Power generation.

 

Although the current petrochemical market segment will remain strongest in the near future, it is the transport and power sector which spurs the vision of a massive market take off in the next decade. The ever-rising share of renewable energies requires flexible and scalable storage solutions, which in turn offers many additional revenue streams beyond pure electricity sales. Adding to this the strong impetus towards decarbonisation of the transport sector from cars, trucks, trains to ships and even airplanes creates the breed for exciting and yet untapped market potential. This course aims to clarify and assess the hydrogen business case along its value chain and versatile market applications.

IN JUST 3 DAYS YOU WILL:

  • Understanding current hydrogen market status and recent developments
  • Major drivers and inhibitors influencing the growth of the market
  • Understanding and comparing various production technology processes
  • Challenges and solutions in transport, distribution and storage of hydrogen
  • Mapping the many petrochemical, energy and transport applications
  • Analyse business cases from around the world and understand their economics
