Just finished reading through a brilliant report on hydrogen production, and it really drives home a key message: hydrogen is the energy game-changer. Here are my top takeaways: Hydrogen production is evolving fast – Traditional methods like Steam Methane Reforming (SMR) are still relevant but increasingly incorporate carbon capture tech to lower emissions (blue hydrogen). Green hydrogen, produced from renewable sources, is on the rise but needs more scale. Electrolysis is the green future, but we need major tech advancements to reduce costs and improve efficiency. Exciting innovations like Anion Exchange Membranes (AEM) are on the horizon, blending affordability with dynamic operation. Carbon intensity matters – Not all hydrogen is created equal. The report highlights how production methods impact carbon footprints. The 'colours' of hydrogen—grey, blue, green—tell the story of their environmental impact. Green hydrogen? It's all about renewables. Big future, but with challenges – Hydrogen liquefaction and transport are complex and costly but crucial for making it a global solution. As readers of my posts know, hydrogen isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a vital component in the decarbonisation race. We need to unlock its full potential. Challenges are there to be overcome. #Sustainability #GreenHydrogen #Decarbonisation #Energy

Clean energy transitions are about more than just reducing emissions; they’re about designing systems that are fair and affordable for everyone. A new report from the IEA highlights seven key considerations to ensure clean energy policies benefit all, especially low-income and marginalised communities. Key takeaway? Inclusivity matters. Whether it's job creation, social equity, or making clean tech affordable, policies must actively bring everyone on board. From subsidising home retrofits for vulnerable households to ensuring universal access to affordable energy, these transitions need to be designed with fairness at the core. Otherwise, we risk leaving many behind. It’s time to prioritise people as we build a cleaner, more equitable energy future! #CleanEnergy #FairTransition #EnergyForAll #Sustainability #GreenEconomy #InclusiveGrowth #ClimateAction #RenewableEnergy

Tritonex effectively creates a protective barrier between the pipeline steel and hydrogen gas, significantly reducing hydrogen permeation and embrittlement. This innovative coating mitigates the risk of fatigue crack growth and extends the service life of pipelines, making it a crucial asset for hydrogen transport infrastructure. 🌍 As the energy landscape shifts towards hydrogen, understanding and mitigating hydrogen embrittlement isn't just a research topic—it's a necessity for future-proofing infrastructure.

🌍 Renewables Surge: What’s Next for 2030? Hot off the press, the latest IEA report on renewables is packed with optimism and challenges. By 2030, global renewable capacity is expected to grow 2.7 times, surpassing current ambitions by 25%. But to hit the COP28 target of tripling, we need even stronger action. Solar PV and wind are leading the charge, and China is at the forefront—expected to account for 60% of this growth. On the hydrogen front, while renewable hydrogen is projected to make up 4% of global production by 2030, the silver lining is the fifty-fold increase in electrolyser capacity. This signals the potential for a rapid scale-up. With policies evolving and infrastructure developing, hydrogen could soon be a pivotal player in decarbonising industries and transport—especially if we harness this growing capacity effectively. A key takeaway? There’s a massive untapped potential in emerging markets—if policies improve. Grid integration, financing, and permitting are still bottlenecks, but with the right tweaks, a cleaner future is within reach.

❗The State of Energy Policy 2024: Reflections on Our Energy Journey❗ It’s been quite the rollercoaster for energy policy over the last few years, hasn’t it? From the chaos of supply chain disruptions to the rapid pivot towards clean energy, the International Energy Agency (IEA)’s latest report highlights just how much we’ve been through—and where we’re heading. Here are my key takeaways: 🌊A Wave of Clean Energy Investment: Since 2020, clean energy investments have surged by 60%. Governments have earmarked USD 2 trillion for clean energy globally. Most of this is happening in China, the EU, and the US—but it’s a strong signal worldwide that clean energy is the future. 🔒Energy Security Is Back on the Table: Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022 reminded us all that energy security isn't just about fuel—it’s about resilience. With clean energy comes new challenges, particularly around concentrated supply chains and critical minerals, and we need to get ahead of those vulnerabilities. 💷Affordability Remains Front and Centre: Energy price spikes hit hard in 2022, prompting governments to step in with over USD 940 billion in affordability support. A lot of these provisions have now been rolled back, but it’s clear affordability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a necessity. 🚧Local Supply Chain Concerns: Here’s something that made me pause: 80% of clean energy manufacturing is concentrated in just three countries. That’s a lot of eggs in a very small basket. Governments are now ramping up incentives for local production, focusing particularly on electric vehicles, hydrogen, and batteries. Diversification is key if we’re going to make this transition securely. ⚖️Trade Wars, but Make It Green: Nearly 200 new trade policies targeting clean tech have been rolled out since 2020. Nations are doubling down on domestic manufacturing and supply chain security for clean technologies. The US and EU are even treating these technologies as critical industries—pretty amazing when you think about how quickly this conversation has shifted.
