In a on 30 March, , Professor in Sustainable Energy Transitions and Head of Centre for Energy Systems and Strategy was joined by Dr Peter Clough, Senior Lecturer in Energy Engineering Centre for Renewable and Low Carbon Energy; Professor Bobby Sethi (MSc Thermal Power 2004, PhD School of Engineering 2007) Deputy Director of Research for the School of Aerospace, Transport and Manufacturing; and Professor Upul KG Wijayantha, Professor and Head of Centre for Renewable and Low Carbon Energy to explore whether hydrogen could take over the world in the UK's path to net-zero.
During the session, Professor Nazmiye Ozkan and guests discussed the:
- Challenges and current status of their research,
- Latest technology developments,
- Predictions for the development of the hydrogen economy in the UK and internationally over the coming years.
