Hydrogen - a secondary energy carrier or a primary energy source?
The discussion forum is dedicated to hydrogen as an energy carrier similar to electricity or hydrocarbon fuel, which is considered the most promising form of clean energy in the automotive and industrial sectors. Its "combustion" with oxygen leads to the production of water or steam, which is not harmful to the environment because even if released into the atmosphere, it circulates in a closed cycle (evaporation and precipitation), unlike carbon dioxide, which accumulates as a greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. There are at least several different technologies for producing hydrogen (low- and high-temperature electrolysis, thermochemical methods using the sulfur-iodine cycle, etc.). These methods will be discussed during the session. In addition to hydrogen production methods, a model for the future use of hydrogen in various energy sectors will be defined.
The series of sessions entitled "Scientific and Technical Progress Closer to Society" was co-financed by the "Social Responsibility of Science II" program of the Minister of Science and Higher Education (POPUL/SN/0329/2024/02).
