Title A name given to the resource The Role of Green Hydrogen in a Decarbonized Economy Subject The topic of the resource Decarbonization Description An account of the resource This thesis investigates the potential of green hydrogen as a cornerstone of the global energy transition, especially in hard-to-decarbonize sectors such as steel production, heavy transport, and chemical manufacturing. Grounded in frameworks like Michael Liebreich’s Hydrogen Ladder, the study critically evaluates the technological, economic, and policy barriers to scaling green hydrogen. Through in-depth case studies in Namibia and Morocco, the research explores how green hydrogen can not only support climate goals but also drive industrial development in the Global South. The project combines policy analysis, economic modeling, and stakeholder interviews to assess how green hydrogen can be deployed equitably and efficiently within a just, climate-resilient future.

Title A name given to the resource A Future Heating Plan for Vassar College Subject The topic of the resource Heating Systems Description An account of the resource New York experiences cold winters, and campus buildings generally require heating from October through early May. Heating is a major driver of greenhouse gas emissions at Vassar, so this report is focused on finding ways to decrease the impact of campus heating. It will address four projects that can help Vassar decrease the climate change impact of heating on campus and work towards the 2030 goal. These projects include the installation of radiator covers in steam heated buildings, switching to renewable fuel oil in the campus central plant, installing air source heat pumps in some campus buildings, and investigating the use of hybrid solar panels on the future Athletic Center. These four projects will help Vassar accomplish the goals set out in the Climate Action Plan.
