Hydrogen – hype or an exciting path towards a cleaner future? Learn about exciting progress and how it might contribute to net zero.

Professor Gunther Andersson has kindly agreed to present a talk at WEC about some of the newest developments in renewable energy, including hydrogen production from water using direct solar energy. A member of our local community, he is Deputy Director of the Flinders University Institute of Nanoscale Science and Technology, a research group with activities in photocatalysis for water splitting, colloid surfaces and interfaces, organic photovoltaic and high temperature corrosion resistance. Read on below.

If is exciting that this sort of leading-edge research, which is investigating better ways of producing hydrogen is happening in our region. It is work that can hopefully lead to more efficient production of hydrogen and assist South Australia in its quest to become a world leader in hydrogen production development. Gunther’s talk will include energy demand, problems with fossil fuels, the alternatives through renewable energies with more detailed information about hydrogen – and you won’t need a science degree to enjoy it! Supper included in the donation fee so always good for after talk discussions!
