#DNV published the "Hydrogen forecast to 2050" report.

Some most interesting conclusions from the new #DNV Hydrogen report about the #LOHC technologies:
Hydrogen can be transported in three different ways: #ammonia, liquid hydrogen (LH2 ), or with liquid organic hydrogen carriers (#LOHC).

The energy loss of dual conversion is 20 to 30% of the hydrogen transported. All three technologies exist and may become the technology of choice.

Liquid organic hydrogen carriers (#LOHC) have the lowest safety risks as their properties are close to those of liquid hydrocarbons already handled in large quantities.

For distances shorter than 1,500 km, it is cheaper to transport #hydrogen in pipelines as pure gas, while for longer distances, transporting the hydrogen as ammonia or via a #LOHC by ship seems to be more cost-effective.

#CorPower_Ocean presented their latest wave energy technology yesterday, the CorPower C4 Energy Converter, and the CorPack Wave Clusters.

Inspired by the pumping principles of the human heart, with this technology we are hopeful to break free from dependency on fossil fuels. The hi-tech will enable the world to harness clean energy from the largest untapped source on Earth, the ocean.
