Course Description
Hydrogen is the simplest and most abundant element in the universe. It plays a unique role in energy systems, not as a primary energy source but as an energy carrier. This means it can store energy and release it when needed, making it highly versatile for applications ranging from transportation to stationary power. Hydrogen can efficiently store and deliver energy, particularly when generated from renewable sources, contributing to a low-carbon energy system.
