Storing energy in hydrogen deposits balances the operation of energy systems and is an effective tool in the process of energy transformation towards achieving Sustainable Development Goals. To assess the validity of its use as an alternative renewable energy carrier in dispersed energy systems of hybrid configuration a comprehensive review of scientific literature was conducted in this study based on bibliometric analysis. The bibliographic databas Read More

The main results highlighted in this article underline the critical significance of hydrogen technologies in the move towards carbon neutrality. This research focuses on several key areas including the production storage safety and usage of hydrogen alongside innovative approaches for assessing hydrogen purity and production-related technologies. This study emphasizes the vital role of hydrogen storage technology for the future utilization of hydrogen as Read More

The gasification of Polish coal to produce hydrogen could help to make the country independent of oil and gas imports and assist in the rational energy transition from gray to green hydrogen. When taking strategic economic or legislative decisions one should be guided not only by the level of CO2 emissions from the production process but also by other environmental impact factors obtained from comprehensive environmental analyses. This paper pr Read More

The use of hydrogen exists in various sectors in Poland and Germany. Hydrogen can be used in industry transport decarbonisation of the Polish steel industry and as one of the low-emission alternatives to the existing coal applications in this sector. Limiting climate change requires efforts on a global scale from all countries of the world. Significant economic benefits will be realized by stimulating the development of new technologies to deal with climate chan Read More

The energy production market based on hydrogen technologies is an innovative solution that will allow the industry to achieve climate neutrality in the future in Poland and in the world. The paper presents the idea of using hydrogen as a modern energy carrier and devices that in cooperation with renewable energy sources produce the so-called green hydrogen and the applicable legal acts that allow for the implementation of the new technology were analyze Read More

In this study a theoretical–experimental methodology for determining the stress–strain state in pipeline systems taking into account the hydrogen environment was developed. A complex of theoretical and experimental studies was conducted to determine the specific energy of destruction as an invariant characteristic of the material’s resistance to strain at different hydrogen concentrations. The technique is based on the construction of c Read More

Geological structures in deep aquifers and salt caverns can play an important role in large-scale hydrogen storage. However more work needs to be done to address the hydrogen storage demand for zero-emission energy systems. Thus the aim of the article is to present the demand for hydrogen storage expressed in the number of salt caverns in bedded rock salt deposits and salt domes or the number of structures in deep aquifers. The analysis co Read More

The novel constructions of hybrid energy sources using polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEMFCs) and supercapacitors are developed. Studies on the energy demand and peak electrical power of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) weighing up to 100 kg were conducted under various conditions. It was found that the average electrical power required does not exceed ~2 kW under all conditions studied. However under the dynamic electrical load of the elect Read More

The perspective of natural hydrogen as a clear carbon-free and renewable energy source appears very promising. There have been many studies reporting significant concentrations of natural hydrogen in different countries. However natural hydrogen is being extracted to generate electricity only in Mali. This issue originates from the fact that global attention has not been dedicated yet to the progression and promotion of the natural hydrogen field. The Read More

According to the European Hydrogen Strategy hydrogen will solve many of the problems with energy storage for balancing variable renewable energy sources (RES) supply and demand. At the same time we can see increasing popularity of the so-called energy communities (e.g. cooperatives) which (i) enable groups of entities to invest in manage and benefit from shared RES energy infrastructure; (ii) are expected to increase the energy indepen Read More
