This presentation will review the opportunities for de-carbonisation across the power, heat and transport sectors, including the role of hydrogen in supporting the de-carbonisation of heat, the positioning of hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles and battery electric vehicles, the opportunities for high efficiency fuel cell heat and power, and the potential of hydrogen to support significant renewables penetration. Examples of current and emerging technology from the field of both hydrogen and fuels cells will be provided, building on the speakers own work in the field.
