    Assessment of The Potential Use of Hydrogen Fuel for Thermal Applications in Nepalese Industries
    (I.O.E. Pulchowk Campus, 2023-11) Bhandari, Birendra
    Global attention has shifted towards climate change and environmental impacts due to carbon emissions. Efforts are made to reduce emissions and attend zero carbon emissions by 2050 being in line with the Paris Agreement and implementing a green economy. Hydrogen has taken the limelight that could change the energy sector and replace fossil fuels. Nepal is expected to have surplus electricity by 2030. Green Hydrogen can be produced from surplus electricity that can be used in various energyintensive sectors and change the source of energy into green and renewable, limiting the environmental damage. A promising approach has been taken to study the assessment of green hydrogen in the industries of Nepal. However, the energy consumption scenario is not known. Considering this, a linear study is carried out to find the energy scenario in industries, and their fuel composition, and a systematic model is created to predict the energy consumption pattern in the future using MAED with the possibility of hydrogen penetration. Numerous field data from different types of industries are taken to analyse and predict energy transition. This research works as a stepping stone towards the applicability of hydrogen in industries of Nepal utilizing the surplus electricity.
