Hydrogen in Offshore Renewable Energy Integration

Offshore renewable energy, specifically wind, tidal stream and wave power, holds massive potential for shaping a cleaner, more sustainable energy future. But what if we could take it a step further? By integrating hydrogen production into offshore energy systems, we can unlock even greater opportunities for providing green energy.

About the session

Join Professor Deborah Greaves OBE FREng, Professor in Ocean Engineering, and Dr Yeaw Chu Lee, Associate Professor in Mechanical Engineering, both from the University of Plymouth, as they delve into the exciting possibilities of harnessing offshore renewable energy to create hydrogen, as well as the dynamics of liquid hydrogen sloshing in storage and transport, such as in aircraft fuel tanks.

Offshore wind and wave sources provide consistent, high-capacity power generation. But why go beyond simply using this electricity directly? Hydrogen made from renewable electricity offers a unique, green solution to the intermittent nature of renewables. Hydrogen can be stored over longer periods, transported across regions, and used to meet energy demand when renewable generation is low or unavailable.

However, producing hydrogen from offshore energy isn’t without its challenges. From the complex logistics of offshore energy integration to the technical difficulties of scaling up production in challenging marine environments, this session will explore the real-world hurdles that need to be addressed.

In this insightful and forward-thinking webinar, the experts will also explore how the integration of offshore renewable energy and hydrogen production can be a key driver in decarbonising industries and achieving Net Zero goals. With both experts sharing their research and deep industry knowledge, you’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of the potential, and the challenges, of this exciting energy landscape.
