SPE GAIA: THE IMPACT OF THE ENERGY TRANSITION ON WATER RESOURCES: THE CASE OF GREEN HYDROGEN
February 13 @ 11:45 am - 2:00 pm
$20.00 – $30.00
SPE WA GAIA is proud to present our February 2024 Sustainability Energy Series Lunch Time Technical Meeting.
About the Presentation
The energy transition necessitates hydrogen generation to meet current energy needs. Low-carbon hydrogen (green hydrogen from renewable energy, and blue hydrogen from gas with CO2 removal and storage) is touted as a replacement, with most authors recognising the ‘green’ credentials of hydrogen. However, as this seminar examines, the impact of hydrogen generation on water resources in the driest inhabited country on Earth, Australia, has the potential to be devastating. This seminar examines the water use for hydrogen, the laws regulating water at present, and the deficiencies in such water regulation
