Designed for professionals, researchers, engineers, and decision-makers interested in renewable hydrogen and industrial decarbonisation, this module explores emerging hydrogen production technologies that may complement conventional electrolysis and contribute to lower-cost clean hydrogen production. Learners examine the scientific principles, advantages, and current development of photocatalytic and photoelectrochemical water splitting, while also comparing thermochemical and methane pyrolysis pathways. Through expert presentations and industry insights, participants evaluate the technical, economic, and commercial factors influencing the deployment of these innovative technologies. By the end of the module, learners will be able to assess the opportunities and challenges associated with scaling next-generation hydrogen production solutions and their role in supporting low-carbon heavy industries and the broader energy transition.
