About this event

  • 1 hour 30 minutes

You may have read or heard that hydrogen is “the next big thing”, or “the solution to getting to Net Zero”, or various other bold statements. But whether this is the case - or not - most people simply know little about hydrogen. On-line searches provide lots of technical information which is not very helpful if you simply want to understand why hydrogen might be relevant to you and your community. Or not.

Join us for this informal discussion about hydrogen research at Brunel. Learn more about hydrogen and the hydrogen economy.

Ask questions and tell us what you think.

  • What actually is hydrogen?
  • Why is it 'flavour of the month'?
  • Why is it important?
  • Where and why might hydrogen be used?
  • What might be the benefits?
  • What might be the issues?
  • Why this might be relevant to you?
  • What Brunel is doing

The event will finish with an insight into what Brunel is doing in Hydrogen.

No previous knowledge is required, no technical language is used, and there are demonstrations and real life hands-on examples.

The session will be delivered by Dr Averil Horton, who is the lead for Brunel Hydrogen and has much experience in providing practical understandings and interesting demonstrations.

This event is part of the Brunel Research Festival, which returns this May for a packed programme of online and in-person activities, celebrating how Brunel's research is changing society for the better. Free and open to all.
