Key directions in hydrogen energetics

A.A. Garibov Dr. in Ch. Sc. - Institute for Radiation Problems

Over the past millennium, the amount of the energy used per person has increased dramatically. However, the amount of energy consumed per person in various countries is quite different.
Recently, renewable energy sources have become widely developed and are an environmentally friendly product. The energy industry as a whole must provide the population and industry with heat and power of adequate quality without interruption, without any ecological issue and on favorable terms as well. Hydrogen technologies and hydrogen energy based on them meet these requirements. Therefore, today large-scale research and technological developments in the field of hydrogen energy are being carried out globally.
The main industrial methods for producing hydrogen are the conversion of methane and coke, as well as the electrolysis of water.
The color gradation of hydrogen depends on the method of production and the level of emission to the atmosphere: green, blue and gray hydrogen.
The author notes that at the present stage of the development of science and technology in Azerbaijan, a relevant and effective method of hydrogen production is a combined system for producing hydrogen based on solar and wind energy using innovative technology of water electrolysis and plasmolysis. It is necessary to develop scientific and technical areas in Azerbaijan to improve efficient methods for converting solar and wind energy and technologies for producing hydrogen from water.
The author emphasizes that in order to implement the strategy of the President of the Republic to turn Azerbaijan into a center of green energy, it is necessary to mobilize the state, scientific, technical, educational and other structures of the Republic into one team, develop the scientific and technical programs, present the necessary projects, and expand international collaboration in these areas.
