Assessing the energy potential of modernizing the European hydropower fleet
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)About 50% of all hydropower plants (HPPs) worldwide were originally commissioned more than 40 years ago, so that the advanced age of the fleet is a major concern across all continents, and especially in Europe. The ... -
Blue, green, and turquoise pathways for minimizing hydrogen production costs from steam methane reforming with CO2 capture
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Rising climate change ambitions require large-scale clean hydrogen production in the near term. “Blue” hydrogen from conventional steam methane reforming (SMR) with pre-combustion CO2 capture can fulfil this role. This ... -
Carbon-negative hydrogen from biomass using gas switching integrated gasification: Techno-economic assessment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Ambitious decarbonization pathways to limit the global temperature rise to well below 2 °C will require large-scale CO2 removal from the atmosphere. One promising avenue for achieving this goal is hydrogen production from ... -
Carbon-negative hydrogen: Exploring the techno-economic potential of biomass co-gasification with CO2 capture
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The hydrogen economy is receiving increasing attention as a complement to electrification in the global energy transition. Clean hydrogen production is often viewed as a competition between natural gas reforming with CO2 ... -
