The HPEM2GAS consortium is organising a final project event on 12 February 2018 in Emdem, Germany.
|
|
Distributed energy generation using renewable power sources and advanced energy storage technologies are of paramount importance for the future energy system. Hydrogen will assume in the future increased environmental and societal relevance in addressing energy issues, pollution and global warming.
|
The HPEM2GAS project is developing a low cost PEM electrolyser optimised for grid management through both stack and balance of plant innovations, culminating in a six month field testing of an advanced 180 kW system. Several strategies have been applied to lower the overall cost with the aim to enable widespread utilization of the technology. These primarily concern a three-fold increase in current density (resulting in the proportional decrease in capital costs) whilst maintaining cutting edge efficiency and a material use minimisation approach.

Hydrogen Use Does Not Emit Carbon but its Production Often Does. That Could Soon Change
|
|
|
What are the main sources of hydrogen today?
|
|
Until clean hydrogen can be scaled up, producing hydrogen – which in itself is a zero carbon emission fuel or energy carrier – remains heavily dependent on fossil fuels. Today, there are three main sources of hydrogen:
|
|
Natural gas. When the methane in natural gas is heated, the molecules split into carbon monoxide and hydrogen. The carbon monoxide can then be treated to produce water gas, from which hydrogen can be extracted.
|
|
Oil. Oil can either go through the same process as natural gas or, if it’s heavy fuel oil, can be turned into hydrogen via partial oxidation. This involves using high pressures and temperatures to oxidate the oil which, in turn, produces a synthesis gas partially made of hydrogen.
|
|
Coal. Coal can also be turned into gas, and during the process its molecules are broken down into their hydrogen and carbon monoxide parts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ambas iniciativas tecnológicas buscan impulsar el ingreso de nuevas fuentes de energía en la industria minera, para luego enfocarse en la producción. El objetivo es que Chile sea un polo mundial de hidrógeno cero emisión en el corto plazo.
