The Importance of Hydrogen Research, with CSIRO
Manage episode 324597726 series 3001334
In this episode of Exploring Hydrogen, we are joined by CSIRO’s Research Director for Energy Technologies Research Program, Daniel Roberts, to learn about the work CSIRO does in the renewable energy space and how they are driving the future for hydrogen advancements in the industry both within Australia and globally.
We dive deeper into the National Hydrogen Roadmap, what a potential hydrogen hub looks like and CSIRO’s research into hydrogen priorities, the opportunities that lie ahead and some exciting technological focuses for the organisation.
Daniel’s Highlights:
1:24 – Daniel’s career journey so far
4:05 – Who is CSIRO?
5:36 – What is CSIRO doing globally in the hydrogen space?
8:03 – The National Hydrogen Release Roadmap and how the nation is aligning over the last 4 years
11:16 – Suggestions for hydrogen supply and demand and bringing on end users quicker
13:29 – What does the potential hub look like?
15:45 – Hydrogen embrittlement and its impact on existing gas networks
17:18 – CSIRO’s research into hydrogen priorities and its opportunities
23:07 – Some of CSIRO’s projects and focuses
25:07 – Efficiency and technological improvements in the electrolyser space
28:22 – Gas network opportunities and advancements
29:35 – What does hydrogen-fuelled transportation look like?
36:29 – Energy systems and its long-term hydrogen storage
38:48 – Hydrogen industrial processes and its advancements, opportunities and potential challenges
43:36 – Waste to energy, gasification and the sector’s advancements/value-adds
48:36 – Where does Daniel see the renewable energy industry in 5 years?
50:17 – How you can follow CSIRO and their research work
Daniel Roberts Bio
Daniel is the Research Director for CSIRO’s Energy Technologies Research Program, where he manages CSIRO’s portfolio of collaborative, industry-focussed RD&D across a range of low-emissions energy technologies including hydrogen, solar, bioenergy, CO2 capture and use, energy storage, and alternative fuels. Most recently he led CSIRO’s Hydrogen Energy Systems Future Science Platform, a broad initiative supporting the long-term success of the emerging hydrogen industry.
Daniel has over 25 years research experience in gasification and its applications, having worked on research projects domestically and internationally, and remains a senior researcher in the area of emerging bioenergy pathways.
