DESCRIPTION
Hydrogen economy - Rationale 1 A hydrogen economy was proposed by the University of Michigan to solve some of the negative effects of using hydrocarbon fuels where the carbon is released to the atmosphere. Modern interest in the hydrogen economy can generally be traced to a 1970 technical report by Lawrence W. Jones of the University of Michigan. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-hydrogen-economy-toolkit.htmlTRANSCRIPT

Hydrogen economy
1 The hydrogen economy is a proposed system of delivering energy using
hydrogen. The term hydrogen economy was coined by John Bockris
during a talk he gave in 1970 at General Motors (GM) Technical
Center. The concept was proposed earlier by geneticist J.B.S. Haldane.

Hydrogen economy - Rationale
1 A hydrogen economy was proposed by the University of Michigan to solve some of the negative effects of using hydrocarbon fuels where the carbon
is released to the atmosphere. Modern interest in the hydrogen
economy can generally be traced to a 1970 technical report by Lawrence
W. Jones of the University of Michigan.

Hydrogen economy - Rationale
1 Proponents of a world-scale hydrogen economy argue that hydrogen can be an environmentally cleaner source of energy to end-users, particularly in transportation applications, without
release of pollutants (such as particulate matter) or carbon dioxide
at the point of end use

Hydrogen economy - Storage
1 The storage of large quantities of hydrogen underground can function
as grid energy storage which is essential for the hydrogen economy

Hydrogen economy - A key tradeoff: centralized vs. distributed production
1 In a future full hydrogen economy, primary energy sources and feedstock
would be used to produce hydrogen gas as stored energy for use in various sectors of the economy. Producing hydrogen from primary energy sources other than coal, oil, and natural gas, would result in lower
production of the greenhouse gases characteristic of the combustion of these
fossil energy resources.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-hydrogen-economy-toolkit.html
Hydrogen economy - A key tradeoff: centralized vs. distributed production
1 One key feature of a hydrogen economy would be that in Mobile Applications (primarily vehicular
transport) energy generation and use could be decoupled

Hydrogen economy - A key tradeoff: centralized vs. distributed production
1 While generating hydrogen at centralized primary energy plants promises higher
hydrogen production efficiency, difficulties in high-volume, long range
hydrogen transportation (due to factors such as hydrogen damage and the ease
of hydrogen diffusion through solid materials) makes electrical energy
distribution attractive within a hydrogen economy

Hydrogen economy - A key tradeoff: centralized vs. distributed production
1 The proper balance between hydrogen distribution and long-
distance electrical distribution is one of the primary questions that arises
about the hydrogen economy.

Hydrogen economy - Distributed electrolysis
1 The distributed production of hydrogen in this fashion would be
expected to generate air emissions of pollutants and carbon dioxide at various points in the supply chain,
e.g., electrolysis, transportation and storage. Such externalities as
pollution must be weighed against the potential advantages of a
hydrogen economy.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-hydrogen-economy-toolkit.html

Hydrogen economy - Fuel cells as alternative to internal combustion
1 Much of the interest in the hydrogen economy concept is focused on the use of fuel cells to power electric
cars

Hydrogen economy - Efficiency as an automotive fuel
1 A comprehensive study of hydrogen in transportation applications has
found that "there are major hurdles on the path to achieving the vision of the hydrogen economy; the path will
not be simple or straightforward"

Hydrogen economy - Hydrogen safety
1 Codes and standards have repeatedly been identified as a major institutional barrier to
deploying hydrogen technologies and developing a hydrogen economy. To enable
the commercialization of hydrogen in consumer products, new model building
codes and equipment and other technical standards are developed and recognized by federal, state, and local governments.

Hydrogen economy - Costs
1 Setting up a hydrogen economy would require huge investments in
the infrastructure to store and distribute hydrogen to vehicles

Hydrogen economy - Examples and pilot programs
1 Iceland has committed to becoming the world's first hydrogen economy by the year
2050. Iceland is in a unique position. Presently, it imports all the petroleum
products necessary to power its automobiles and fishing fleet. Iceland has large
geothermal resources, so much that the local price of electricity actually is lower than the price of the hydrocarbons that
could be used to produce that electricity.

non-polluting form, available to automobiles

Sulfur-iodine cycle - Hydrogen economy
1 The sulfur-iodine cycle has been proposed as a way to supply
hydrogen for a Hydrogen economy|hydrogen-based economy. With an efficiency of around 50% it is more
efficient than electrolysis, and it does not require hydrocarbons like current
methods of steam reforming but requires heat from combustion, nuclear reactions, or solar heat
concentrators.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-hydrogen-economy-toolkit.html
