Building the road to a H2-fueled economy—Part 1

In this three-part article series, the authors will examine the economic factors, regulatory and policy trends, and technical and strategic challenges facing the energy industry, exploring how advances in automation and collaboration among stakeholders are improving efficiency, reliability and safety across the entire H2 value chain, from production to transmission to consumption. 

Regional policies and strategies driving the transition to a H2 economy

Some countries have begun working on frameworks to rival that of the IRA, while others struggle to make concrete plans. A common trend among various countries is the integration of H2 into their energy mixes. The energy transition is underway, but what specifics are nations planning to achieve in the coming years?

Exploring the repurposing of pipeline infrastructure

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), more than 1.2 MM km of natural gas transmission pipelines have been installed worldwide, and approximately another 200,000 km are under construction or in pre-construction development. This infrastructure holds the potential to be repurposed for H2 transport.

Keppel intensifies efforts to develop green H2 and ammonia production in Australia

Keppel Corporation is intensifying its efforts to produce and use of green H2 and ammonia as low-carbon energy sources through joining a consortium to develop a large-scale green H2 project in Australia and the signing of a MoU with Incitec Pivot.

Raven SR bioenergy project receives environmental approval from Richmond, California

Raven SR announced the unanimous approval of its California Environmental Quality Act permit by the Richmond City Council on May 16 for Raven SR's first organic waste-to-H2 bioenergy project, which will be in Richmond, California.

High-quality, low-risk energy transition to H2

Managing the energy transition to H2 requires considering the complex impact H2 can have on any pipeline network. For example, are pipeline staff able to reskill quickly enough to operate a pipeline transporting H2 blends? Can security of supply be maintained while also accommodating changes in demand?

The Republic of Namibia to develop Sub-Saharan Africa’s largest green H2 project
