Education & Training

The Training Centre has developed a number of programs and initiatives to deliver an industrial training programs to prepare our researchers, industries and community to support and facilitate the transformation of Australia's Hydrogen industry and adoption of technologies into the market. 

Short Courses & Masterclass

This tailored professional development short-course addresses the essential elements in global hydrogen economy and renewable Power to X. The course explores concepts of key technologies across Hydrogen production, storage and utilisation; renewable and energy storage integration for hydrogen production, value-chain analysis, hydrogen certification, safety and social licences. The course will be delivered by expert facilitators from the Training Centre, thought leaders and experts from the Australian hydrogen industry.​​

​

Free Webinar & Videos

The following webinars are produced by the GlobH2E researchers and the TC's partners and are available to watch on-demand. 

GlobH2E is also launching a webinar series featuring a range of experts from industry as well as academia. Please check out our Events page to follow our webinar series. ​

Hydrogen Economy

  • Hear from the Co-Director of the GlobH2E, Scientia Professor Rose Amal on Hydrogen Economy covering topics on current and emerging hydrogen technology across the value chain, the role of hydrogen in the decarbonization and enabling government support for the adoption of Hydrogen.

 

​

  • Watch also a recording of Dr Alan Finkel, the Special Adviser to the Australian Government on Low Emissions Technology at the Industry Day Plenary Session of 2021 UNSW Energy Future Conference. Dr Finkel's address covers:

    • the importance of technology in tackling climate change​

    • government policies and programs such as the Technology Investment Roadmap and international low emissions technology partnerships

    • the opportunities for Australia in new and emerging technologies

    • some recent analysis on different production methods for hydrogen

    • the importance of a robust certification scheme for an effective hydrogen value chain

Hydrogen Generation

In this topic, hear about the concepts of renewable energy and Power-to-Hydrogen and Hydrogen Production Pathways; different colors of hydrogen, and find out what is the current state of play of hydrogen.

Hydrogen Storage and Transportation

What are the options to store and transport hydrogen safely ? In what way that hydrogen is more efficient and economically favourable compare to electrification ? In this topic, the audience will hear about methods of safe hydrogen storage and safe transportation of pure hydrogen and what are the best combination that lead to the lowest

Hydrogen Utilisation 

Hydrogen makes an excellent fuel and is now set to play crucial role helping us to tackle the climate crisis and wean-off global's greenhouse gas emission.​ The Hydrogen Utilisation topic covers topic on utilisation of pure hydrogen, as well as hydrogen in the form of alternate chemicals. Audience will also hear about Power-to-X.  In this topic, we also compiled a series of case study covering use case of Hydrogen:​

  • Case study 1 - Lesson learned from Hydrogen Gas Blending Project (with Daniel Krosch, GPA Engineering)

​​

​​

​

 

  • Case study 2 - Ammonia as Hydrogen Carrier (with Dr Alex Trajkov, H2Utility)

  • Case study 3 - Green Methanol as Hydrogen Carrier (with Michael van Baarle, ABEL Energy)

  • Case study 4 - Green Steel

  • Case study 5 - Hydrogen Mobility

Hydrogen Safety

We often heard about the myth that Hydrogen is too dangerous to ever be used on a large scale and the Hindenburg airship disaster was often quoted as an example of unwarranted reputation of Hydrogen. The lecture on H2 safety will give an overview of Hydrogen in energy systems, hazards associated with gaseous and liquified hydrogen, as well as safety protocols for hydrogen production, storage and transport.​

Waste Biomass to Renewable Hydrogen Project (funded by ARENA)

Extracting hydrogen from biomass represents a valuable approach by which a waste organic stream can be transformed into hydrogen (or hydrogen-carriers) for downstream use or as an exportable commodity. This project has established a stand-alone biomass reforming system capable of generating hydrogen and/or hydrogen-carriers using a waste biomass stream and sunlight, without producing any carbon dioxide emissions. The activity received funding from ARENA as part of ARENA's Research and Development Program - Renewable Hydrogen by Export.

UNSW SHINE 2.0 with Scientia Professor Rose Amal

The SHINE project showcases an integrated reactor system with direct and indirect heating of the methanation reactor. SHINE utilises concentrated solar power to heat the reaction chamber and maintain reaction temperature through active solar tracking. Alternatively solar energy can be converted to electricity and stored in a mobile battery/solar controller unit for the primary's hydrogen generation and indirect heating reactor, allowing for night time operation.

It is part 4 of 4 lectures series on H2 safety. This lecture was prepared by Dr Quang Anh Tran (Postdoctoral Researcher at GlobH2E).

Hydrogen Value Chain and Business Model

Business innovations around linking and fitting hydrogen technology into the established gas and electricity market are expected to enable commercial viability. The lectures will cover hydrogen modelling across the value chain covering modelling costs for renewables, hydrogen production, electrolysers, as well as hydrogen storage and transport. Techno-economic feasibility case studies will also be presented.​

Social Acceptance and Policy Development

Understanding the public acceptance of large scale renewable projects for hydrogen production, storage, and associated life cycle to obtain a social license to operate, which is paramount to the successful deployment of the project and adoption to the market.
