This year, the Gulf Energy Information
family expands with the introduction of
H2Tech, the first technical publication devoted entirely to applications and trends
A� BLUME,
for the hydrogen (H2 ) community worldEditor-in-Chief
wide. H2Tech is geared toward engineers
and other professionals involved in H2 production technologies and applications progress on all spectrums-from gray
and brown to blue and green, and beyond.
The midstream sector is reducing its carbon footprint with
help from H2 blending in natural gas pipelines, the use of H2 in
turbomachinery and, in some cases, the repurposing of existing natural gas infrastructure to distribute H2 . Forecasts show
that H2 could reach a 10% share in the world's total primary
energy demand by 2050.
H2Tech was created to inform and unite the community of
technologists and business professionals working in the rapidly
growing H2 sector. The first quarterly issue of H2Tech will be
published in March 2021, and the website will host news, podcasts, webcasts, whitepapers, engineering resources and much
more. We invite all readers to visit www.H2-Tech.com to stay
updated on the H2 sector and to sign up for the H2Tech weekly
newsletter. On 18-19 May, the H2Tech Solutions virtual technology conference will bring together engineers, technologists
and managers working to advance fuel, chemical and industrial
applications for H2 . Visit www.H2-TechSolutions.com to register and submit your abstract. Finally, please feel free to drop me a
line with feedback or editorial inquiries for H2Tech at Adrienne.
Blume@H2-Tech.com. I look forward to hearing from you! GP
