Within the realm of the energy industry, the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) serves as a valuable tool for evaluating the ecological consequences associated with both renewable energy initiatives, such as solar and wind farms, and non-renewable energy undertakings, such as coal-fired power plants (Sokka et al., 2016). EIA can also assess the …
Dihydrogen (H2), commonly named ''hydrogen'', is increasingly recognised as a clean and reliable energy vector for decarbonisation and defossilisation by various sectors. The global hydrogen demand is projected to increase from 70 million tonnes in 2019 to 120 million tonnes by 2024. Hydrogen development should also meet the seventh goal of ''affordable and clean energy'' of …
