Due to the technical requirements and diversity in business models, use cases, and organizational structures, hydrogen is perceived as a possible means for decarbonizing the freight sector. This chapter presents the qualitative research conducted in... Read More about Hydrogen-fueled transportation as a measure for climate change mitigation: Social perspectives.

In Search of Complementarity: Insights from an Exercise in Quantifying Qualitative Energy Futures (2022)
Journal Article
Copeland, C., Turner, B., Powells, G., & Wilson, K. (2022). In Search of Complementarity: Insights from an Exercise in Quantifying Qualitative Energy Futures. Energies, 15(15), Article 5340. https://doi.org/10.3390/en15155340

In this study, we considered a bridging strategy between qualitative and quantitative research with the aim of achieving complementarity. A pilot case study using the Sheffield Elicitation Framework “SHELF” to estimate appropriate inputs for a quanti...
