Hydrogen Applications
(1) In the industry:
-
Oil refining, -
Production of ammonia for fertilizers (obtained on through the Haber-Bosch process), -
Methanol production and steel production.
(2) In transportation:
-
Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) that relies on electric batteries to store energy
-
Fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) that use hydrogen; Like trucks, public buses -
Rail, as French hydrogen trains Alstom entered regular service in Germany and Austria in September 2020.
(3) In construction:
-
Hydrogen can be blended into existing natural gas distribution networks, in commercial buildings and multiple family residences, especially in densely populated cities.
-
Long-term prospects could include the direct use of hydrogen in a hydrogen boiler or fuel cell.
(4) In power generation:
-
Hydrogen can supplement the work of batteries such as storage in the medium term (seasonal)
-
In the long term as a fuel to mix with natural gas in combined cycle units
-
Operation of a new generation of hydrogen 100% turbines.

The Energy Central Power Industry Network is based on one core idea - power industry professionals helping each other and advancing the industry by sharing and learning from each other.
If you have an experience or insight to share or have learned something from a conference or seminar, your peers and colleagues on Energy Central want to hear about it. It's also easy to share a link to an article you've liked or an industry resource that you think would be helpful.
