The use of hydrogen in the energy sector is an idea that isn’t going anywhere. But there are many hurdles that need to be overcome if it is to truly impact the quest for a decarbonised economy.

While it is a clean-burning fuel and can take advantage of using renewable generation so it doesn’t go wasted, questions remain over its efficiency, difficulties in transporting it, and, in some instances, reliance on carbon capture technologies—which have their own controversies.

The guest on this week’s episode of Energy Enablers is Minh Khoi Le, Head of Hydrogen Research at Rystad Energy.

Minh offers his perspective on the development of low-carbon hydrogen in the energy transition and its role in the quest for a decarbonised economy. He also highlights natural hydrogen as an area of interest for the sector. If you want to know more, FORESIGHT recently published this deep dive on natural hydrogen—also called white or gold hydrogen.

Digital twins have long been used to help monitor renewable energy generation assets. But with the growth of new digital tools able to support the use of this data, digital twins are becoming vital tool to maximise production.

Joining David on Energy Enablers this week is Werner Coppye, co-founder and CTO at 3E, a provider of digital solutions for renewable energy projects.

They discuss how digital twins have developed over recent years and look at how new technologies like artificial intelligence are changing the way digital twins are being used.

The shift towards a future where electric vehicles (EV) rule the road seems inevitable. As a result, grid operators, consumers and software companies can now concentrate on taking advantage of the new business models that are emerging in this market. 

Such models were not possible in a market dominated by internal combustion engines. In this episode of Energy Enablers, David speaks with Torben Fog, chief innovation officer at Danish EV charging platform provider Spirii. 

Torben discusses some of these new opportunities including demand response and frequency regulation services. They also touch on the barriers that are delaying the growth of these models, such as a lack of transparency and grid constraints.
