Hydrogen's Role in Achieving Net-Zero Carbon Emissions
Stanford ENERGY59 minEnglish
Why watch it?
If most clean energy reaches end users as electricity, where does hydrogen still matter? Joe Powell, former Chief Scientist for Chemical Engineering at Shell and an AIChE Fellow, takes up that question at the Stanford Energy Seminar. He points to heavy transport, shipping, aviation and heavy industry, where hydrogen's energy density and storability count, and to its role in making other carriers and chemicals and recycling carbon. A strategic overview from March 2021, conceptual rather than cost-based.
