Scope of the book / M. Ball and M. Wietschel -- Why hydrogen? / M. Ball -- Non-renewable energy resources : fossil fuels : supply and future availability / M. Ball -- Non-renewable energy resources : nuclear fuels / M. Ball and F.A. Toro -- Assessment of the potentials for renewable energy sources / G. Resch [and others] -- Carbon capture and storage / C. Cremer -- Energy-chain analysis of hydrogen and its competing alternative fuels for transport / W. Weindorf and U. Bünger -- Hydrogen today / M. Wietschel, M. Ball, and P. Seydel -- Fundamental properties of hydrogen / M. Fichtner and F. Idrissova -- Hydrogen production / M. Ball, W. Weindorf, and U. Bünger -- Hydrogen storage / M. Fichtner -- Hydrogen distribution / M. Ball, W. Weindorf, and U. Bünger -- Key role of fuel cells / F. Marscheider-Weidemann, E. Schirrmeister, and A. Roser -- Hydrogen-infrastructure build-up in Europe / M. Ball [and others] -- Building a hydrogen infrastructre in the USA / J. Ogden and C. Yang -- Hydrogen and the electricity sector / M. Wietschel, C. Cremer, and M. Ball -- Hydrogen corridors / M. Wietschel and U. Hasenauer -- Macroeconomics impacts of hydrogen / M. Wietschel [and others] -- Sustainable transport visions : the role of hydrogen and fuel-cell vehicle technologies / M. Wietschel and C. Doll -- Energy-efficient solutions needed : paving the way for hydrogen / E. Jochem -- The future of hydrogen : opportunities and challenges / M. Wietschel and M. Ball.
Responding to the sustained interest in and controversial discussion of the prospects of hydrogen, this book strives to reflect on the perspectives of a hydrogen economy in light of the global energy challenge, in particular the question of how to meet the growing demand for transport energy in the long term and how to secure sustainable energy for transportation. This book stands out from other publications by its emphasis on setting the scene for hydrogen, and the comprehensive coverage of all aspects related to the hydrogen subject. It aims to provide a reference and compendium about hydrogen that should be of interest to anyone who wants to catch up on the status of the hydrogen discussion, look up a specific aspect related to hydrogen, or understand how hydrogen comes off compared to other mobility solutions. The book should appeal to a fairly broad readership: academia, policy makers and industry.
