PRESENTACIÓN
The Master’s degree in Hydrogen Energy Projects has been designed to grant students access to cross-cutting knowledge related to key aspects of the hydrogen energy production sector. As a matter of fact, it is intended to help students develop the necessary skills to successfully participate in different projects all the way from the conceptual to the strategic stage. Therefore, and to this end, this program has been structured into 9 modules that progressively delve into the characteristics of hydrogen as an element, as well as into its energy and environmental impact. This program also delves into the context of hydrogen as an energy source by analyzing the associated production technologies and the subsequent conversion process by means of fuel cells. It also goes into the storage and control systems within the supply chain, the repercussions of hydrogen in mobility and infrastructures, and of course, its uses and applications. In addition, other key aspects such as the construction of hydrogen filling stations, the strategic component and geopolitics of the sector, and finally, the economic and business aspects of hydrogen production, are also addressed. Furthermore, the program provides the necessary theoretical framework, case studies, and practical exercises for students to put the acquired knowledge into practice. Finally, at the end of the course, all knowledge and skills learned throughout the duration of the master’s degree will be tested by means of a final project.
