  • 240I_Craig Ehrke, the Chief Executive Officier at Skai Energies
    Jul 24 2024

    "We are in a space that any one person can have an impact in some way."

    Are you interested in rethinking urban planning? What do you think about our power provided by the modern times for changing cities? How can we create better communities and urban collaboration?

    Interview Craig Ehrke, the Chief Executive Officier at Skai Energies. We talk about his vision for the future of cities, circularity, reconciliation, urban living rooms, smart city, hydrogen energy storage, and many more.

    Over more than 2 decades, Craig's career has spanned both large multi-national and mid-size businesses throughout the Americas, Europe, Australia and Asia Pacific. In these roles, he worked from FMCG to Defence to Life Sciences & Industrial Gases, and was constantly focussed on both supporting the continuous improvement of businesses operations, and the development of global technologies. Now in the industry of hydrogen & renewables, Craig has set Skai up to tackle the issues of how we can use decentralised renewable energy and hydrogen, to transition from dirty and costly use of fossil fuel. Working with organisations to develop hydrogen projects, he leans on close partnerships with 4 European Original Equipment Manufacturers to bring best practice and install critical hydrogen equipment.

  • 239R_Development of a sustainable hydrogen city concept and initial hydrogen city projects (research summary)
    Jul 22 2024
    Are you interested in utilising hydrogen in our urban lives? Our summary today works with the article titled Development of a sustainable hydrogen city concept and initial hydrogen city projects from 2022 by Münevver Özge Balta and Mustafa Tolga Balta, published in the Energy Policy journal. This is a great preparation to our next interview with Craig Ehrke in episode 240 talking about using hydrogen for energy storage, among others. Since we are investigating the future of cities, I thought it would be interesting to see how we can utilise hydrogen for better urban futures. This article presents a conceptual hydrogen city planning model for minimizing the carbon footprint of cities.As the 3 As the most important things, I would like to highlight 3 aspects: Cities need to transition from fossil fuels to sustainable, efficient, and environmentally friendly energy systems like hydrogen to combat pollution and climate change.The conceptual hydrogen city planning model outlines a process for creating sustainable urban energy systems by producing hydrogen through renewable sources, storing it, and distributing it throughout the city.Policymakers play a crucial role in driving the transition to renewable energy sources like hydrogen by implementing energy-based urban planning strategies, improving infrastructure, adopting new technologies, and creating supportive policies. You can find the article through this link. Abstract: Recently, the concept of sustainable cities has become increasingly important because of serious technical and environmental challenges stemming from global warming. These challenges are related to an increase in the energy demand of cities, which is still met by non-renewable energy sources that release CO2 into the atmosphere. A carbon-free economy should be planned in a sustainable way by utilizing renewable energy sources and sustainable technologies. In this context, planning and implementing a hydrogen economy can be one solution to prevent these problems; sustainable urban planning has become a more complex issue, considering all these problems together. The main objectives in doing the present study are twofold, namely: (i) to provide an overview of the current status of hydrogen city projects and (ii) a conceptual hydrogen city planning model is presented for policy and decision makers. In this study, the initial hydrogen city projects are reviewed and summarized. And a conceptual hydrogen city planning model is presented for minimizing the carbon footprint of the cities. As can be concluded based on the status of the initial hydrogen city projects, which have been investigated and presented, these projects need more time to complete by considering the energy efficient technology.
