we focus on lowering production and operational costs through advanced electrolysers , incorporating carbon capture and storage ( CCS ) for blue hydrogen , enhancing transportation and improving fuel cell technologies .
“ Scaling up production is essential , achieved by automating engineering and employing standardised , modular designs to expedite project execution from planning through operation .”
AspenTech ’ s solutions address complex industrial environments , enhancing the operational performance of assets across asset-intensive sectors from energy to chemicals , oil and gas , engineering and many more . Its AI-powered digital solutions , AspenTech says , are critically important in helping customers address a dual challenge : meeting the increasing demand for resources from a growing population , while also working toward sustainability goals .
It achieves this , Paige says , by helping customers improve the efficiency and effectiveness of manufacturing and energy production processes . By optimising these processes , companies can use fewer resources , generate less waste and reduce environmental footprint .
She adds : “ Our approach ensures safety , reliability and efficiency in operations , less impacted by renewable energy variability and maximising operational uptime . A comprehensive digital strategy integrates a digital blueprint from the start , utilising advanced technologies and applying digital solutions early to deliver tangible benefits and strengthen investment confidence .”
However , despite hydrogen being projected to contribute significantly to carbon abatement , particularly by 2050 , some large initiatives are progressing slowly .
