Abstract

The use of hydrogen transport is an important step towards carbon neutrality. Unlike traditional transport running on hydrocarbon fuel, hydrogen cars do not hurt the environment during their operation. New green technologies for public transport deserve special attention since they are a key source of pollution in large cities. Achieving carbon neutrality is impossible without using new hydrogen technologies in all industries. Hydrogen, in its final form, should become the main fuel for transport (cars, buses, trains, and river vessels), which, unlike electric transport, is not limited by the speed of refueling.

Hydrogen energy in the process of its development faces a large number of tasks and challenges, such as the production of “environmentally friendly” hydrogen, namely “green”, which is in greatest demand during the transition to a carbon-free economy, as a result of the problems arising during the storage of hydrogen.

Russia has huge water resources and one of the promising, energy-efficient and economically inexpensive technologies is the production of hydrogen fuel at hydroelectric power plants. This study presents a scheme for producing green hydrogen at a mini-hydroelectric power station with subsequent use for public transport purposes. In the Russian Federation, various domestic companies are developing and designing hydrogen-fueled transport. In the near future, hydrogen public transport may become a good alternative to diesel buses.

期刊介绍： The objective of the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy is to facilitate the exchange of new ideas, technological advancements, and research findings in the field of Hydrogen Energy among scientists and engineers worldwide. This journal showcases original research, both analytical and experimental, covering various aspects of Hydrogen Energy. These include production, storage, transmission, utilization, enabling technologies, environmental impact, economic considerations, and global perspectives on hydrogen and its carriers such as NH3, CH4, alcohols, etc. The utilization aspect encompasses various methods such as thermochemical (combustion), photochemical, electrochemical (fuel cells), and nuclear conversion of hydrogen, hydrogen isotopes, and hydrogen carriers into thermal, mechanical, and electrical energies. The applications of these energies can be found in transportation (including aerospace), industrial, commercial, and residential sectors.
