Hydrogen’s evolving role in the energy transition

Hydrogen is no longer seen as the answer to every tough question in the low-carbon energy transition,
but it is still expected to have a role in helping manage a low-carbon electricity sector. By Janet Wood

Supercritical CO2: An expanding range of potential applications

Power projects of various kinds are aiming to exploit the advantages of supercritical CO2 as a working fluid relative to steam, which include high density (twice that of steam), low viscosity and ability to operate at high temperatures, with high volumetric heat capacity, allowing it to carry more energy per volume than steam. The end result is much more compact power plant equipment
