As part of a future-oriented educational proposal, ARPA (the Association for the Research and Promotion of Alternatives) yesterday took part in a specialised talk organised by the Vocational Training Centre of the Labour Foundation of the Construction Industry.
The presentation revolved around one of the most important issues on the current energy scene: hydrogen as a vector for storing renewable energy. During the talk, the most recent advances in the development and application of hydrogen as a clean, efficient and sustainable solution for storing energy generated from renewable sources were presented.
In addition to explaining its viability for sustainable mobility — from drones to trains — real examples of its use in infrastructure, transport and decentralised energy systems were analysed. Particular emphasis was placed on the key role that this technology can play in the decarbonisation of industrial estates and other production environments.
One of the main themes of the session was the analysis of the professional potential that this emerging field represents for students. As it is still a developing sector, it opens a unique window for training new technicians and specialists capable of leading the energy transition from its foundations.
ARPA's participation in this type of meeting is a response to our commitment to innovation, technical knowledge and the training of new professionals who will be key players in the energy challenges of the future.
