Transporting liquid hydrogen at -252.87°C requires specialized cryogenic tanker trucks equipped with advanced insulation to keep hydrogen stable during transit. This method is vital for supplying hydrogen to areas without pipeline infrastructure and refueling stations. While liquid hydrogen offers a higher energy density and efficiency for long-distance transport, challenges like managing boil-off and ensuring safety make it a complex, yet crucial part of hydrogen distribution. Explore more about hydrogen delivery methods and their role in the clean energy transition on our Hydrogen 101 page. https://lnkd.in/dkfnBWeJ

High-pressure tube trailers are a critical component in the hydrogen supply chain, transporting compressed hydrogen gas across various distances. With advanced materials and robust safety features, these trailers deliver hydrogen efficiently to industrial sites and refueling stations, especially where pipelines aren’t feasible.  While offering flexibility and scalability, tube trailers also face challenges like high transportation costs and energy demands. Dive deeper into how these trailers fit into the broader hydrogen infrastructure and their impact on the clean energy transition on our Hydrogen 101 page. https://lnkd.in/dkfnBWeJ

Keep up to date about the latest hydrogen developments through our news page https://seh2.energy/news/, or explore extensive resources on hydrogen in our library https://lnkd.in/d5F_5yya   In the news this week— Clemson University researchers are leading a $5.7 million project, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, to develop a new method of producing clean hydrogen using renewable energy instead of natural gas. The research focuses on creating advanced materials and manufacturing methods for solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOECs), which use renewable electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen, eliminating carbon emissions. By integrating AI and laser manufacturing techniques, the project aims to speed up material development and scale production for real-world applications. This effort positions Clemson at the forefront of hydrogen production and sustainable energy transformation. Aviva Aron-Dine, performing duties as Assistant Secretary for Tax Policy, highlighted the ongoing implementation of the Inflation Reduction Act’s (IRA) clean energy provisions. Since the IRA’s signing in August 2022, nearly $500 billion in private investments have been made in building America's clean energy economy, particularly in lower-income communities. Treasury has issued extensive guidance on tax incentives related to clean energy, and is entering "Phase Four" of implementation, which focuses on finalizing rules for key tax credits like the Clean Electricity and Clean Hydrogen Production Credits. These efforts aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, boost clean energy industries, create jobs, and lower consumer costs. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced up to $15 million in funding to support technologies that convert waste materials, such as biomass, coal, and plastics, into clean hydrogen. The initiative aims to make hydrogen more affordable and accessible for electricity, industry, and transportation, contributing to the Biden Administration's goal of a net-zero emissions economy by 2050. The funding focuses on advancing gasification technologies and supporting the DOE's Hydrogen Shot initiative, which seeks to reduce hydrogen production costs by 80% within a decade. Applications are due by November 22, 2024. Verne, in partnership with Diesel Tech Industries (DTI), unveiled the world’s first heavy-duty Class 8 truck powered by cryo-compressed hydrogen (CcH2) at the Alberta Motor Transport Association Innovation Expo. This truck utilizes a blend of diesel and hydrogen, made possible through DTI’s retrofit system, and Verne’s CcH2 fuel storage technology, which enables 33% more hydrogen storage than liquid hydrogen. This innovation is part of the 5,000 Hydrogen Vehicle Challenge, aimed at putting 5,000 hydrogen or dual-fuel vehicles on Western Canada's roads in five years.

Happy Hydrogen Week! It's time to celebrate the power of hydrogen as a clean energy option for a sustainable future. There are learning opportunities re: hydrogen as a fuel or energy source through the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), great organizations like Southeast Hydrogen Energy Alliance, or EPRI's free #H2Edge programming. 💧⚡ You may be familiar with the #truecolors of Hydrogen production methods. (Cue song that will be stuck in your head for the rest of the day.) These descriptions don't capture the full carbon intensity, and we're inching away from these descriptions, but it's a quick way to start learning the lingo before moving into deeper conversations. Green Hydrogen: uses renewable energy for zero emissions! 🌱 Blue Hydrogen: lower emissions with carbon capture tech ♻️ Gray Hydrogen: Production has higher carbon footprint 🌫️ H2 has a place in the near future and long-term for a net-zero future. Check out USDOE's Hydrogen Liftoff Report. https://lnkd.in/eeaC3Gvs #HydrogenWeek #CleanEnergy #GreenHydrogen #Sustainability #EnergyTransition #SHEA #EPRI #H2 #SustainableFleets
