Adding hydrogen to the renewable energy mix
Blending hydrogen with natural gas in existing networks is a way of reducing carbon emissions. University of ÑÇÖÞ²ÊƱ¹ÙÍø researchers have led a series of research projects through the Future Fuels CRC, testing domestic and industrial appliances using various percentages of hydrogen to natural gas ratios.

Solar thermal energy for lowering emissions in alumina production
Our researchers have found that introducing concentrating solar thermal (CST) technologies to the Bayer alumina process could enable a 29-45% solar share. ÌýThis would displace the need for natural gas and decrease operating fuel costs.
