APPLICATION OF HYDROGEN TECHNOLOGIES IN ROAD TRAFFIC IN SLOVENIA

V primeru srednje-in dolgoročnega uvajanja vodikovih tehnologij v cestni promet bo potrebno predvideti potrebe po vodiku in zagotoviti ustrezne energetske vire za njegovo proizvodnjo. V tej nalogi so zbrani podatki o porabi pogonskih goriv v osebnem potniškem prometu v Sloveniji. Na osnovi tega so predviden potrebne količine vodika, ki bi nadomestile trenutno uporabljana goriva. Nadalje so predstavljeni ključni energetski viri, z uporabo katerih bi lahko proizvajali vodik, in primerjava potencialnih proizvodnih zmogljivosti s predvidenimi potrebami. Poudarek je na obnovljivih virih energije in drugih okolju prijaznih postopkih.In the case of middle- and long-term introduction of hydrogen technologies in road traffic it will be necessary to predict needs of hydrogen and to provide appropriate energy sources for its production. In this master thesis the information about fuel consumption in personal passenger traffic in Slovenia is collected. On that basis quantities of hydrogen needed to replace currently used fuels are predicted. Furthermore, some key energy sources for hydrogen production and comparison of potential production capacities with predicted needs of hydrogen are presented. The focus of attention is renewable energy sources and other environment-friendly processe
