H2 Project

Presentation

When Greenpeace advocates the reduction of 80% of GHG (greenhouse gases) by 2050, where oil reserves are decreasing and storage of nuclear waste becomes a problem. Considering the H2 Project on Hydrogen as a factor for producing sustainable energy.

Our goal : Producing a 100% clean energy on a large scale !

The solution we prefer is the tidal
based on ocean currents : hydrokinetic energy
and the movement of waves : wave energy.

Advantages of tidal energy

• It's renewable, so there is no environmental impact,
• Water is an abundant resource, it covers 70% of Earth's surface,
• No worry about the visual or sonorous pollution or about the landscape destruction,
• An energy in deep expansion, that can only improve.

Electricity from tidal energy comes back to continent via cables.

Problems

How to bring this electricity back with minimal losses?
How to produce it and store it on a large scale ?

The heart of the H2 Project
Click to see in full size

We have imagined a marine platform (1) which would be linked to wave energy converters (2) and hydrokinetic turbines (3).
So, we would have a clean electricity production and close, decreasing the probability of a cable rupture and losses of electricity. The electricity would be sent to a big sass full of seawater. That one would be the place of hydrogen production by the electrolysis processes. This produced hydrogen would be stored in bottles via a compressing factory. One of the main advantages of the H2 PROJECT is to produce hydrogen, which can be used in many different ways, by using several green energies during the production.

Advantages

• We can replace oil in transports with the fuel cell, and it also decreases significantly the atmospheric pollution,
• Development of the research,
• Creation of new jobs, and a new technology to export.

Why transforming produced electricity in Hydrogen?

Produced electricity can not be stored. It is instantly consumed or lost. Batteries have disadvantages: weight, cost, low productivity, danger. But Hydrogen is presented as an energy carrier and it can be stored with different processes.
