Research
Cost-efficient and scalable production – Research area 1
This research area will enable cost-effective and large-scale H2 and NH3 production technologies.
Transport and storage – Research area 2
This research area will close important technology gaps to enable efficient transport and storage of H2 and H2 carriers in order to quickly introduce carbon-free energy-carrier concepts.
End-use technologies – Research area 3
This research area will develop H2 and NH3 technology solutions for use in otherwise hard-to-abate maritime and industrial sectors.
Safety and material integrity – Research area 4
This research area will develop critical knowledge on H2 and NH3 safety and material integrity in production, transport, storage and end use to reduce risk and increase end-user confidence and widespread uptake.
Enabling a sustainable hydrogen economy – Integrating activity
- Establishing the methodological foundation for holistic assessments of the technical, economic, environmental, and social impacts of H2 value chains,
- Performing feasibility case studies of H2 and NH3 value chains that demonstrate the potential for value creation in Norway and for export, and
- Stimulating innovation based on research conducted in HYDROGENi and industrial uptake of new technology and solutions.
