Understanding the Potential of Hydrogen Technology Adoption in a Complex Changing Energy System

能源由多个利益相关者提供，他们在复杂的系统中相互作用，在这些系统中，过去的经济、工程、技术、社会和监管决定影响将采用的现有技术和新技术的相对潜力。因此，昨天的能源系统影响了采用新氢技术的可能性，而我们在采用新的可再生技术时作出的决定将对采用哪些新技术产生长期影响，因为所做的决定可能会使能源系统的发展偏向于某些技术而不是其他技术。有鉴于此，本项目将1)描述现有能源系统的特点，包括开发替代的非氢基可再生技术；2)从经济、技术和工程角度对潜在的氢技术进行分类，以评估其成功采用的潜力；3)就现有能源系统如何支持和或阻碍所分析技术的发展提供详细分析；4)就工程、管理、监管和技术因素需要如何改变以促进更多地采用氢技术提供理解和战略见解。

Energy is provided by multiple stakeholders who interact in complex systems in which past economic, engineering, technological, social, and regulatory decisions influence the relative potential of existing and new technologies to be adopted. Thus, yesterday's energy system influences the potential for new hydrogen technologies to be adopted, and decisions taken as we adopt new renewable technologies, will have long term consequences with regard to which new technologies will be adopted, as decision taken are likely to bias the energy systems development in favour of some technologies over others. Given this context, this project would 1) characterise the existing energy system including the development of alternative non-hydrogen based renewable technologies 2) Categorise potential hydrogen technologies on economic, technological, and engineering grounds so as to evaluate their potential for successful adoption, 3) provided detailed analysis with regard to how the existing energy system supports and or hinders the development of the analysed technologies, and 4) provided understanding and strategic insights with regard to how engineering, managerial, regulatory, technological factors would need to change in order to foster stronger adoption of hydrogen technologies.
