A University of Wyoming research group, known as the Construction and Innovation Lab and led by Chengyi "Charlie" Zhang, has made significant contributions to the field of hydrogen research. The group, consisting of graduate and doctoral students as well as postdoctoral researchers, recently published two back-to-back articles in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy. The first paper, authored by graduate research assistants Danish Kumar and Saksham Timalsina along with Zhang, focuses on the techno-economic analysis of integrating green hydrogen into existing pipeline infrastructure, highlighting the complexities and challenges of cost estimation. The second paper, led by Kumar with Zhang and Eugene Holubnyak, evaluates the levelized costs of hydrogen production from renewable and fossil-based pathways, incorporating emission costs, tax incentives, and sensitivity analyses. Both articles provide a comprehensive view of economic viability and critical cost considerations related to hydrogen infrastructure. These publications were made possible through seed funding from the Hydrogen Energy Research Center (H2ERC), showcasing the collaboration between UW's School of Energy Resources and College of Engineering and Physical Sciences. Zhang's group's dedication to pushing the envelope in hydrogen research has been recognized with multiple funding awards, indicating a promising future for further innovations in energy infrastructure with a focus on efficiency, safety, and resilience.
