HyStorPor Final Event - Advanced Hydrogen Research in Scotland

HyStorPor Final Event - Advanced Hydrogen Research in Scotland

12/07/2023 at 09:00

Edinburgh Climate Change Institute

The final event for HyStorPor took place in Edinburgh. The project had been investigating subsurface geological storage of hydrogen in porous media. Project members presented their findings. We also discussed public perception of hydrogen and heard about public engagement initiatives. The one-day event took place in the Conference Room of the Edinburgh Climate Change Institute and online.

Ep 1: Camilla Thomson and Mathieu Lucquiaud

Tue, 11/02/2021 - 15:17

Welcome to the first episode of the SCCS podcast. In this episode we sit down to talk with two University of Edinburgh scientists from the School of Engineering: Dr Mathieu Lucquiaud, Reader in Clean Energy with Carbon Capture and Storage; and Dr Camilla Thomson, Chancellor’s Fellow in Energy. We discuss all things CCS, including their background, research interests, the NEWEST-CCUS project, COP26, and the world's first MOOC on CCS.
