Study compares hydrogen transport options in Europe to identify cost-effective and low-impact pathways
Shanghai Jiao Tong University Journal CenterThis paper presents a techno-economic assessment (TEA) combined with an environmental life cycle assessment (LCA) of various hydrogen delivery options within Europe, aiming to identify the most sustainable and cost-effective methods for transporting renewable hydrogen. Five hydrogen carriers—compressed hydrogen, liquid hydrogen, ammonia, methanol, and a liquid organic hydrogen carrier—are compared, assuming that hydrogen is produced via renewable electrolysis in Portugal and transported to the Netherlands by either ship or pipeline. The findings align with much of the existing literature, indicating that the most economically and environmentally sustainable options for long-distance hydrogen delivery are shipping liquid hydrogen and transporting compressed hydrogen via pipeline. Chemical carriers tend to involve higher costs and environmental impacts, largely due to the additional energy and materials (e.g., extra solar panels) required in hydrogen conversion steps (i.e., packing and unpacking). While the findings offer valuable insights for policymakers, further research is needed to address the limitations of multi-criteria assessments for emerging hydrogen technologies, particularly the uncertainties associated with the early development stages of processes along the hydrogen value chain. Future research should also focus on extending the scope of sustainability assessments and enhancing model reliability, especially for underrepresented environmental and social impact categories.

A study on intergenerational coexistence at the university helps dismantle stereotypes associated with ageism
Universitat Pompeu Fabra - Barcelonawo researchers from the Department of Humanities at Pompeu Fabra University have analysed the experiences of older students in an intergenerational lifelong learning programme at UPF. The study helps dismantle stereotypes associated with age and ageism: the older students’ accounts demonstrate that ageing cannot be confined to stories of decline or success, but is continuously shaped by shifting social, emotional and academic circumstances. The research highlights a range of challenges and opportunities linked to intergenerational coexistence within the classroom and shows how this practice fosters the exchange of experiences and enriches academic debate. It also proves that older students contribute knowledge, diverse life experiences and a high level of motivation for learning, factors which also benefit their younger peers and the broader university community.

Emergency departments failing Australians with psychosocial disability
Adelaide UniversityEmergency departments are failing Australians with psychosocial disability, as new research from Adelaide University reveals that the very system designed to help, is instead retraumatising vulnerable patients in crisis.
