The University of Warwick is among multiple partners to access a £11 million investment to fund a brand-new research hub for hydrogen.
Hydrogen, along with hydrogen-based and low-carbon fuels like ammonia, are considered vital for the UK to achieve its net zero emissions target by the year 2050. An exceptionally versatile energy option, hydrogen is suited for use with regards to a wide range of areas where options like electricity are unsuitable.
The UK Hub for Research Challenges in Hydrogen and Alternative Liquid Fuels (or UK-HyRES for short) is designed to lead the way for Britain’s approach to both hydrogen and alternative liquid fuels (ALFs) in the future. Its aim is to become a global leader in the field of hydrogen research, and hopes to one day supply practical hydrogen and ALF technologies that are not only safe but sustainable.
Individual consumers and companies seeking to fund renewable energy projects in the UK often seek out green investment advice in Chester, Sheffield, and other major cities. Wealth managers are often used as an advisory resource by investors to help them construct ethical investment portfolios that reflect their personal stance on issues such as the environment.
The new UK research hub is designed to identify and prioritise, as well as supply, solutions to specific research challenges, to help accelerate the adoption of hydrogen and ALFs. The hub will offer a network and a collaboration platform designed to take on research challenges, underpinning the production and storage distribution of hydrogen and hydrogen-based fuels, along with those concerning their end use.
