Overview
Key facts
Hydrogen and ammonia are versatile molecules able to deliver a variety of advantages with multiple applications but they still need to win the battle for low cost production and the widening of applications.Biogas and biomethane are well established and can expand their contribution of the energy demand of the water sector. Biofuels like bioethanol or biodiesel could growth towards a wider implementation but currently remain a small part of the energy market. Synthetic fuels and CO2 sequestration processes whilst still in their infancy could provide solutions for the energy transition by extending the life of current energy technologies.
Cranfield University's Alternative Energy Vectors for the Water Sector - Opportunities and Challenges on the Path to Net Zero programme will teach you more about this topic.
Programme Structure
Courses include:
- Review of plans for Net Zero. Some key examples presented and discussed,
