Posters
Come meet the poster presenters to ask them questions and discuss their work
We would like to invite you to come and see the posters at our upcoming conference. The posters will showcase a diverse range of research topics and provide an opportunity for delegates to engage with the authors and learn more about their work. Whether you are a seasoned researcher or simply curious about the latest developments in your field, we believe that the posters will offer something of interest to everyone. So please, join us at the conference and take advantage of this opportunity to learn and engage with your peers in the academic community. We look forward to seeing you there!
PO127: Unlocking bulk hydrogen production, storage and transport through learnings from real-life UK industrial trials
Molly Iliffe, Principal Consultant, ERM
Abstract
The emergence of a hydrogen economy now has real momentum and represents a major opportunity for energy producers - many of whom have existing skills, experience and infrastructure which can be repurposed for the hydrogen industry. However, there is a missing piece of the jigsaw when considering the full value chain for hydrogen. This is the ability to store and transport hydrogen in large quantities. Hydrogen as an energy carrier has a relatively low volumetric energy density compared to fossil fuels, resulting in significant handling difficulties. A solution for transporting hydrogen at scale from one location to another to balance supply and demand and to reach large scale end-users is therefore needed. The UK Government commissioned ERM to design two industrial scale trial projects to address these considerations. Key learnings from these projects will be presented to delegates, including technical challenges and solutions, commercial drivers and optimisers, and health, safety and stakeholder considerations and approaches. The two industrial scale trial projects together cover the full value chain for liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) storage, transport and use in a marine context.
