Pragmatic Barriers within the Dutch Borders for Ammonia Decarbonisation

There are three routes for Ammonia decarbonisation:
1. Fossil gas use + Carbon Capture
2. Bio-methane drop-in
3. Green hydrogen substitution

Does India need green hydrogen?

There is no practical crossover in the next decades where green hydrogen production from electrolysis meets total hydrogen demand.

SOFC & Micro-gas Turbine vs Diesel Gensets

Diesel gensets remain unmatched in simplicity an availability. Will there be future power systems which can displace this incumbent? Download and read the complete report.

Green hydrogen investment decision - Basic flowchart

Green hydrogen investment decisions are often driven by policy optimism rather than rigorous assessment of local conditions. This insight cuts through that noise with a practical decision flowchart that walks investors and project developers through the key questions: Is there surplus renewable electricity? Is it cost-competitive? Is there existing infrastructure? Is there a committed offtake market? The flowchart is designed to reach a clear preliminary go / no-go position in minutes — and to identify exactly which conditions need to change before investment becomes viable.

Generating cooling with minimum energy

By combining solar energy, passive cooling techniques, and intelligent system design, residential & commercial cooling can become:
- More affordable
- More energy efficient
- More environmentally sustainable

Are SOFCs fuel flexible?

Key finding:

While SOFCs are technically compatible with six fuel types - including hydrogen, natural gas, biogas, syngas, methanol, and ammonia; practical constraints around stack direct-feed capability, fuel purity requirements, and real-world availability narrow the viable options to just two: hydrogen and natural gas. Fuel selection is one of the most consequential system design decisions for any SOFC system deployment.
