Green Hydrogen for clean Energy

“Green” hydrogen enables the storage and flexible transportation of wind and solar energy and therefore plays a key role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This course provides in-depth knowledge of the production, storage, transportation and use of hydrogen and selected derivatives. You are given an overview of hydrogen as an energy carrier and you will learn about key aspects of hydrogen production. The main teaching material consists of short video recordings of expert presentations on various components of the hydrogen supply chain. . Through various activities, you will have the opportunity to reflect on and deepen your new knowledge. The learning materials are already available on the SDG Campus, and you will be redirected there. Soon, they will also be moved to the HOOU.
