Abstract
A hydrogen economy is a hypothetical economy in which energy is stored and
transported as hydrogen (H2). Various hydrogen economy scenarios can be
envisaged using hydrogen in a number of ways. Proponents of a hydrogen economy
suggest that hydrogen is an environmentally cleaner source of energy to
end-users, particularly in transportation applications, without release of
pollutants (such as greenhouse gasses) at the point of end use; and that these
advantages may hold similarly with use of hydrogen produced with energy from
fossil fuels, if carbon capture or carbon sequestration methods are utilized
at the site of energy or hydrogen production.
Meanwhile, critics of a hydrogen economy argue that for many planned
applications of hydrogen, direct use of energy in the form of electricity,
chemical batteries and fuel cells, and production of liquid synthetic fuels
from carbon dioxide, might accomplish many of the same net goals of a hydrogen
economy, while requiring only a small fraction of the investment in new
infrastructure.
The latest offering from Aruvian Research brings you a complete analysis of
the Hydrogen Economy. Analyzing the Hydrogen Economy report contains a focused
socio-economic, political, and environmental analysis of the factors affecting
the hydrogen economy. The report contains an analysis of the technologies
involved in hydrogen production, hydrogen storage, hydrogen conversion, and
much more.
The report also carries in-depth case studies on the various countries which
are actively involved in the hydrogen economy. An analysis of the technical
barriers, other issues, cost effectiveness affecting the hydrogen economy, and
the procedure involved in the actually implementation of the hydrogen economy
are all discussed in great details inside this report. Determining the future
of the hydrogen economy and the energy industry becomes a lot easier with this
report.
