Solving Green Hydrogen delivery with Systems Engineering
Hydrogen is the key to unlocking accelerated energy transition switching for heavy industry, trucking, maritime, rail and aviation, but storage is hard, and it’s holding the entire hydrogen economy back. A Green Hydrogen Start-up is solving storage, with their breakthrough advanced nanoporous materials at the centre, and enabling sustainable end-to-end ecosystems, delivering efficient, safe and low-cost hydrogen, to precipitate a rapidly growing, potentially multi-trillion-dollar market by 2050. Systems Engineering practices have been implemented to ensure the most efficient pathway to achieve a safe and reliable product in the start-up environment. This talk will cover:
- The hydrogen supply chain ecosystem and the mission;
- The rationale for embedding systems engineering in a technology start-up environment;
- The implementation approach and the tools used; and
- Lessons learnt on the journey so far. The talk will be followed by an opportunity for networking.
Learning outcomes
In this presentation you will gain:
- an understanding the good practice on system engineering in a start up and technology development environment.
- an understanding to the systems engineering and environment communities of the hydrogen supply chain and challenges.
- an insight to career options in the start up environment for systems and sustainability engineers.
Speaker
Chris acquired a BE in Materials Engineering in 1998 and a Master of Engineering (by research) at Deakin University in 2002 on a postgraduate scholarship. He also has a postgraduate diploma in Project Management.
His career started in the automotive industry and was followed by a long stint at Cochlear, operating a variety of roles in implants development and product launch. In 2016-19 he joined numerous Aussies scaling Tesla in California and subsequently worked for various local cleantech startups, where he establishes Systems Engineering as a core competency for successful technology and product development.
Chris resides in Wollongong, NSW, where he raises his small family and pursues a longstanding interest in recreational aviation.
