20211130 · Hydrogen power uptake Hydrogen fuel produced from 100 per cent renewable electricity is already being used in Australia. There''s a trial fleet of 20 hydrogen-powered government vehicles in Canberra and a hydrogen filling station.
The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) is an intergovernmental organisation that supports countries in their transition to a sustainable energy future and serves as the principal platform for international co-operation, a centre of excellence and a repository of policy, technology, resource and financial knowledge on renewable energy.
Hydrogen is the most common chemical element in the universe. It can be stored as a gas or liquid, or made part of other molecules, and has many uses such as fuel for transport or heating, a way to store electricity, or a raw material in industrial processes. When it is produced using renewable energy or processes, hydrogen is an emissions free
Power-to-X means using renewable electricity, for example wind power, to create something else (''X''). The ''X'' created is an energy carrier – usually renewable hydrogen, which can power medium- to heavy-duty transport or be used in industry. Renewable hydrogen, or green hydrogen, can in turn be synthesised into other green fuels, such
