Aragon produce hydrogen with solar energy

Hydrogen Economy



"Hydrogen is the candidate for fuel of the future, no pollution and can be produced with renewable energy. It solves the problems of solar and renewable energy to allow efficient storing and transporting their excess energy as light and losses per unit. The challenge now is focused on cheaper production of hydrogen and fuel cells, but the big challenge is to replace an economic infrastructure based on fossil fuels, "said Florentino Sanchez, Energy Analyst Corporación Caixa Galicia.

In an economy as globalized and fast, the current difficulties in reducing emissions produced by fossil fuels will be enhanced by the runaway growth of current demand and consumption will cause explosion of the intense economic development of countries like China, India and Brazil. These conditions leave little room for large time investment and time required for hydrogen, the financial support of the auto majors will not be enough and unfortunately just moved to new climatic catastrophes political forces to work harder. Forms

hydrogen production

electrical hydrolysis or electrolysis: industrial process to separate hydrogen from water, development and research centers to obtain efficient hydrogen production with clean energy, maximum minimizing costs, energy losses and pollution.

chemical reactions from methane gas: can be obtained as a fossil fuel, although their production by microorganisms is very common and increasingly used for its ability to clean and renewable.

Biofotólisis: photobiological production of hydrogen from electricity, water, carbon dioxide and algae, will be the largest biological source of renewable and sustainable energy without greenhouse gas emissions, with minimal greenhouse gas - steam water can condense and create a minimum greenhouse effect, but without any substance that harms the environment. -

Challenges for the Hydrogen Economy:

1 - Producing hydrogen at low cost and without polluting the environment

2 - Replace the existing infrastructures to store and distribute hydrogen

3 - Reduce manufacturing costs of fuel cells

Featured Projects

ITHER: Technology Infrastructure for Hydrogen and Renewable Energy has been supported by the PROFIT program. The aim is to build a bench scale tests to generate of hydrogen from wind and solar energy, to be operational in 2007. This project depends on the Development Foundation for Hydrogen in Aragon driving more projects worth 6 million euros.

edha: Project R & D companies to bring the hydrogen

TETRA: Sixth Framework Programme of the European Commission on technology transfer between research institutes and companies

IPHE: International Partnership for the Hydrogen Economy, an organization for R & D in production, distribution, storage, security, durability and cost of hydrogen and fuel cells.
