The role of hydrogen and fuel cells in providing affordable, secure low-carbon heat

摘要: © (2014) by the Committee of WHEC2014. The debate on low carbon heat in Europe has become focused a narrow range technological options, largely neglecting hydrogen and fuel cell technologies. Yet commercial ventures installing CHP establishing pilot programmes for injecting into natural gas grids have already emerged. Furthermore, recent research suggests that potential cells may been overlooked, suggesting gap between scientific evidence base policy direction. Thus there is clear need-also recognised government-for assessment meeting goals European policy: provision secure, affordable, low-carbon heat.
