Kurssin sisältö
Hydrogen, the all-rounder, can be produced and used as an emission-free energy carrier, serves as a raw material for the decarbonisation of industry and can store clean renewable energy sustainably on a seasonal basis. These advantages make hydrogen an essential component of climate and environmental policy and of solution strategies for overcoming economic challenges.Seven lessons provide answers to key questions about hydrogen and hydrogen technologies. These include the principles and technologies for the production, transport and utilisation of hydrogen. Hydrogen production is based on biogenic or climate-neutral gaseous, liquid and solid energy sources on the one hand and on electricity on the other and is therefore closely linked to the infrastructure and the generation of renewable electricity.
The advantages of the hydrogen economy in terms of low global and local emissions and increased efficiency in the energy system as well as the possibilities of efficient conversion of hydrogen into electricity with fuel cells and the production of hydrogen with electrolysis cells are described on the basis of existing applications. Innovative research and development activities for technology development, which go hand in hand with the use of new materials, are discussed and will lead to significant cost reductions in the future and further accelerate market introduction.

Ass.Prof. Dr.techn. Merit Bodner researches in the field of fuel cell and hydrogen technologies since 2011, with particular interest in fuel cell and electrolyser durability. She holds a tenure track position in Electrochemical Engineering in the Field of Expertise “Mobility and Production” at Graz University of Technology and is leading the working group with the same name. She teaches electrochemistry, electrochemical engineering, chemical reaction engineering, fuel cells and hydrogen technologies.
Merit Bodner has more than 30 peer reviewed publications and received the Hydrogen Europe Research Young Scientist Award in 2022.
Assoc.Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr. techn. Marlene Kienberger heads the Biorefinery working group at Graz University of Technology. She teaches thermal separation processes and biorefinery. In her research she mainly deals with the extended material use of renewable resources before their energetic use. A significant part of her research deals with the isolation of valuable materials that are produced in side streams of the biobased industry.
