This short course provides a comprehensive overview of the current status of Australia’s hydrogen economy. It explores the key technologies, policies, opportunities and challenges for the country and industry through the expertise of leading academic and professional presenters, hosted by UTS.

About this course

It is imperative that the world moves to environmentally friendly and sustainable energy supplies in the near future and Australia has unrivalled solar and wind resources that could offer a secure supply of reliable and low emission energy.

Storing energy via hydrogen could help to level out the energy from these intermittent sources and to deliver energy to the end users. When the chemical energy in hydrogen is converted into thermal and electrical energy, the only by-product produced is water, which will effectively eliminate CO2 emissions and matter otherwise generated when carbon-based fuel is burned. Hydrogen is the preferred candidate for storing and exporting Australia’s renewable energy across the vast span of oceans, as outlined by the CSIRO National Hydrogen Roadmap and Australia’s National Hydrogen Strategy.

To help establish a hydrogen economy that will create new businesses and new employment, leading UTS academics have worked together with industry experts to develop a short course comprising a suite of modules to equip participants with fully comprehensive, up-to-date and authoritative knowledge regarding the emerging hydrogen economy.
