Hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe, has long been touted as a promising renewable energy source for the vehicles of the future. Dr. XiaoYu Wu, a mechanical and mechatronics engineering professor at the University of Waterloo, firmly believes in hydrogen’s potential, but he also recognizes the significant challenges associated with its storage and transportation.
As the world pivots towards decarbonization and energy security, hydrogen is taking center stage as a clean energy carrier. What’s more, the logistics of transporting hydrogen efficiently and safely over long distances have become a critical concern. Enter ammonia, a versatile and cost-effective solution that’s revolutionizing the global hydrogen transportation landscape.
