A new international research initiative will measure hydrogen emissions from operating infrastructure in North America and Europe, filling a gap where little empirical data exist today.

A new international research initiative will measure hydrogen emissions from operating infrastructure in North America and Europe, filling a gap where little empirical data exist today. With commercial hydrogen operations poised for global expansion, the new information will help producers, regulators, investors, and others understand potential emission sources and how to address them.

The study connects Cornell to four global industry leaders: Air Products, Air Liquide, Shell, and TotalEnergies; global not-for-profit, Environmental Defense Fund (EDF); academic scientists from Utrecht University, University of Rhode Island, and West Virginia University; and applied research and technology development firms, Aerodyne Research, TNO, and Transport Energy Strategies.

“When researchers and industry work together, we can move scientific discoveries out of the lab and into the real world where they make a difference,” said David Lodge, Francis J. DiSalvo Director of the Cornell Atkinson Center for Sustainability. “For universities like Cornell, this type of partnership is critical to transform knowledge to impact.”
