Last week was Hydrogen Week! We welcomed Alex from Northern Gas Networks to deliver a session to our wonderful 10A2 science class. Alex spoke about “bond energies”, a topic which is also on the GCSE specification, and how this can be applied to the combustion of hydrogen. Using hydrogen as a fuel source is likely in the future, with several advantages over traditional fuel sources – the main one being that it could help the UK reach “net zero” as the process does not release any carbon dioxide. We thank Alex for a fantastic session that highlighted to our students how their work in the science classroom can be applied to real scientific advancements
