As pressurized hydrogen gas becomes a viable, low-carbon energy option, we must make sure that our national fuel transportation infrastructure is ready to handle it. Material behavior and after-effects of H2 exposure on pipeline materials must be evaluated and understood. EWI Principal Engineer for Structural Integrity, Bill Mohr, has written Effects of Hydrogen Exposure on...

Understanding Lithium Batteries for Electric Vehicle Applications -- a new EWI guide Lithium-ion batteries are costly, but they dominate in electric vehicle applications because they can achieve high operating voltages and very high energy efficiency while also maintaining a small size and footprint. With so much interest in Li batteries comes more R&D geared to...

As the international energy industry shifts toward a more sustainable, carbon-neutral future, there are two growing areas of interest: Hydrogen generation, transmission, and infrastructure Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) Hydrogen, an emerging fuel source, holds great promise as a renewable, low-carbon resource. Production technologies are accelerating and becoming more viable. However, there are coexisting...
