Repurposing Pipelines for Hydrogen
This course is for anyone working on conceiving, planning, designing, constructing, and commissioning assets repurposed for hydrogen. It’s a comprehensive deep-dive into the challenges of repurposing assets, the emerging legislative framework, supporting research, timescales, and the required resources. It also identifies gaps in the current industry knowledge and ongoing investigation.
Description
Why this course?
70+ years of experience in energy infrastructure
Penspen has completed innovative hydrogen
repurposing projects for transmission and
distribution infrastructure in Portugal, Ireland,
Turkey, the UK, and Greece.
Be prepared for the next step
As the energy transition accelerates, the course
will provide practical advice regarding the priorities
and resources required for the next step in your
hydrogen project.
