摘要
回想一下化学课的情景。还记得氢吗?它是地球上最简单的元素,由一个质子和一个电子构成。不过,不起眼的氢已骤然成为全球各地能源领域最热门的话题。这是由于氢的简单性与变通性,可以用来减少不断增长的制造业和发电产业所排放出的温室气体,同时也能促进再生能源的应用与分布。由于把氢加入价值链的成本相当高,有些怀疑人士便质疑氢的作用。但支持者指出,规模经济一加上许多的政府支出--将会促成一个至少是局部性灌输氢气的能源体系。
Go back to chemistry class.Remember hydrogen?It's the simplest elementon earth,consisting of one proton and one electron.Well,humble hydrogen has suddenly become thehottest topic in energy circles around the globe.That's because hydrogen's simplicity andversatility can be applied to reduce greenhousegas emissions across an ever-growing numberof manufacturing and power segments,whilealso advancing the adoption and distribution ofrenewable energy.
