Course overview
Hydrogen is attracting major investment as a low-carbon fuel and feedstock for industry, transport and power. Oil and gas companies, refiners, utilities and governments are all developing hydrogen strategies.
This Aractech course explains hydrogen production routes including steam methane reforming with carbon capture and electrolysis, storage and transport options, end uses, safety, economics, regulation and certification. Participants assess hydrogen project opportunities and the conditions needed for success.
The course gives a realistic, technology-neutral overview of the hydrogen economy.
