Typical Hydrogen Project and What Makes a Project?

One of the many features of hydrogen that makes it an exciting area is that there is not a single ‘typical’ project and what is considered market standard is still very much developing. Having said that, projects can be grouped into broad categories and there are common features worth recognizing. In this episode, we present a brief introduction into possible structures for hydrogen projects – working through examples and noting the similarities (and differences) to projects which may be more familiar, such as LNG production and conventional power generation.

This 19-minute presentation is part of our FLN Introduction to Hydrogen series where we explore what makes this clean fuel crucial to decarbonise our societies. View all episodes on our website here.
