Engineering Challenges in the Hydrogen Economy
IMechE in-person event
Overview
Following the commitment from Government to legislate for net-zero emissions by 2050, hydrogen is stated to play a role an energy vector in the reduction of emissions from power, transport, and industrial sectors.
In March 2021, we hosted the Future Applications of Hydrogen for a Low Carbon Economy seminar that highlighted the importance of building a network of engineers in the field to discuss common engineering challenges, applications and strategies. As more projects move from concept to demonstration and commercial scale, there is a need to discuss common challenges, share lessons learned and identify the role of the mechanical engineer.
This conference is an opportunity for engineers to identify challenges across the hydrogen value chain including production, distribution, storage, and utilisation. Hydrogen can be a useful part of the energy system, but engineers must understand the inherent challenges before it can be used effectively, and at scale, in a net-zero future energy economy.
