| Summary |
Annotation The transition to a hydrogen economy is considered by many as key to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and increasing energy security. Advanced hydrogen production, storage and utilisation techniques will be essential to this progression. Advances in hydrogen production, storage and utilization provides a review of developments in this dynamic area. Part one introduces key aspects of hydrogen production, covering fundamentals such as the various feedstocks and hydrogen production on different scales. Part two then considers hydrogen production from renewable energy systems. The final part of the book discusses the essential topics of hydrogen storage, fuel cells and hydrogen as a transportation fuel |
