Outlook 2022: Ammonia can crack the code for the hydrogen fuel cell market
Ammonia offers storage and transport option that could solve hydrogen cost conundrum
Significant developments in hydrogen could be found amid the many headlines of Glasgow’s Cop26 global summit, from Europe announcing its €1bn ($1.13bn) investment in clean technologies to Scotland showcasing its first-ever hydrogen-powered train. Scotland also announced that hydrogen would be used to meet 15pc of Scottish energy needs by 2030, joining the plethora of government announcements signalling significant development for hydrogen in the coming years. But infrastructure to support the growing hydrogen economy continues to play catch-up. Due to the fuel’s poor volumetric density, storing and transporting hydrogen remains a problem. Hydrogen can be moved in many ways—including as a pre
