Green Hydrogen Technologies

Green hydrogen is rapidly gaining recognition as a cornerstone of future sustainable energy systems. As industries, governments, and investors seek decarbonisation pathways, green hydrogen offers a clean, versatile, and scalable energy carrier that can transform sectors ranging from power to transport and heavy industry.

This training programme provides participants with a comprehensive understanding of green hydrogen technologies, from production and infrastructure to storage, transport, and end-use applications. It also explores policy developments, market trends, and emerging innovations shaping the hydrogen economy. Through practical insights and global case studies, participants will be empowered to evaluate and apply green hydrogen strategies within their own organisations and contexts.

Section 1: The Role of Green Hydrogen in the Global Energy Shift

• Introduction to hydrogen types: green, blue, grey, and pink
• Why green hydrogen matters: climate goals, energy security, and decarbonisation
• Strategic benefits: environmental, economic, and geopolitical implications
• Key players and global policy initiatives driving hydrogen expansion
• Comparative review of national hydrogen strategies (EU, Japan, Australia, MENA)

Section 2: Green Hydrogen Production Pathways

• Electrolysis explained: using renewable electricity to split water
• Overview of main electrolysis technologies:

1. Alkaline Electrolysis
2. Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM)
3. Solid Oxide Electrolysis (SOE)

• Integration with renewable energy sources: solar, wind, hydro
• Cost, efficiency, and scaling potential of each method
• Innovations in low-cost electrolyser technology and decentralised systems
• Interactive workshop: mapping production system design for a local project

Section 3: Hydrogen Storage, Transport, and Infrastructure

• Key storage methods: compressed gas, liquefied hydrogen, and chemical carriers
• Infrastructure considerations: pipelines, mobile transport, and fuelling networks
• Hydrogen carriers: ammonia, LOHCs, methanol – benefits and trade-offs
• Safety and regulatory standards for storage and transport
• Infrastructure investment trends and international collaboration models
• Hands-on session: infrastructure planning and risk mitigation

Section 4: Cross-Sector Applications of Green Hydrogen

• Hydrogen in mobility: fuel cell vehicles, trains, aviation, and maritime transport
• Power sector integration: hydrogen-to-power systems, backup storage, and grid balancing
• Industrial uses: low-carbon hydrogen in steel, cement, chemicals, and ammonia production
• Hydrogen for buildings: heating, cooling, and combined heat and power (CHP)
• Case studies of hydrogen deployment across sectors and regions
• Group activity: identifying hydrogen potential in participants' industries

Section 5: Market Outlook, Policy Support, and Future Developments

• Market challenges: cost barriers, infrastructure gaps, technology readiness
• Investment dynamics and public-private partnerships
• Government support: subsidies, carbon pricing, and regulatory frameworks
• Innovations to watch: hydrogen blending, Power-to-X, and hydrogen hubs
• Global project pipelines and gigawatt-scale production forecasts
• Strategic planning exercise: building a green hydrogen roadmap for organisational use
