- The socio-economic and financial implications of hydrogen use
for transport and gas supply - Funded PhD Scholarship Summary
Hydrogen and fuel cell technology have the potential to largely
contribute to the decarbonization of the energy system. The
possible applications to the transport, to the industrial and to
the household sectors are receiving increasing attentions from
academic researches, business activities, and public authorities.
Having the potential to be integrated into all component of the
energy system, hydrogen is providing substantial opportunities to
decarbonize the energy structure. The overall economic value of its
utilization is expected to increase rapidly with spillover effects
across activities and employment generation. The Manchester Fuel
Cell Innovation Center is a new -4.1M part funded by European
Regional Development Fund (ERDF) research center established by
Manchester Metropolitan University. The center with its
world-leading academics is working in collaboration with
small-medium enterprises and regional institutions to develop the
latest catalytic materials and to identify cost-effective
application strategies. The Future Economies research center is an
interdisciplinary research center that combines the fields of
economics and political economy to analyse the future policy
challenges and the related strategies and responses of business,
policymakers and civil society. The Green Economies research area
of the Future Economies research center is particularly focused to
identify how technological development, consumer behavior and
macroeconomic policies can be combined to promote a more
sustainable economic structure. The collaboration between the
Manchester Fuel Cell Innovation Center and the Future Economies
research center will then be oriented to investigate the main
drivers, barriers and economic implications of hydrogen uses. Aims
and objectives The aim of the project is to investigate the main
socio-economic and financial implications related to the use of
hydrogen in transport and gas supply.
The main objectives will be oriented to:
- To investigate the potential applications of in the North West
of England;
- To investigate the potential benefits and costs across sectors
and activities;
- To investigate the main socio-economic and financial
implications;
- To work in collaboration with local authorities to identify the
most cost-effective and sustainable implementation strategies.
