Clean Hydrogen: The Key Concepts

Session 1 of the Zero to Hydrogen Hero Programme

Terminology is explained and demystified, covering the value chain from production (grey, blue, green or turquoise?) to transport (compression, liquification or conversion?) to end-use (fuel cells or combustion?).

This course will provide you with a comprehensible explanation of the core technological features and variables within the hydrogen landscape, one which is immediately accessible and relevant to business-focused people. Key data and features of the current hydrogen market are also reviewed, future market opportunities segmented and emerging projects and applications highlighted.

What Attendees Are Saying

Great overview with deep knowledge demonstrated over the course
— CEO, Bioarag
Slides were informative, good delivery from the trainer, and the technology worked well. Good idea to space it out over three days as it was less disruptive.
