The first post made in the LH2 Era™ Blog was on February 18th of 2016, and this post is the 115th on the topic of liquid hydrogen (LH2) systems. There is certainly online content that has been around much longer, but I'm not aware of any existing blogs exclusively focused on LH2 that are older than this one.
While a decade of articles on LH2 is something to personally celebrate (along with my 66th birthday this month :), it does pose a bit of a challenge for readers. Sorting through 115 articles to find a specific topic of interest, or even knowing where to start reading for a deeper dive, is not an easy task.
In an attempt to help with that, I've collected all those blog articles into one searchable 288-page archive document and sorted them into eight sections:
1. Vision, Evolution, and Foundations2. Technology and Engineering Fundamentals
3. Safety, Training, and Workforce
4. Architectures, Systems, and Operations
5. Sector-Specific Applications6. Analysis, Modeling, and Software Tools7. Market Insights and Global Policy8. Business News and Highlights
There is also a mind map at the end of the document showing interrelationships between the primary topics. Here's a few links to get more details and access to it:
- Table of contents, other front matter, and mind map: H2 Sage™ (free; see last two documents in the "Liquid Hydrogen" section)
- Full document download, updated monthly: LH2 Era™ Library (annual subscription that also includes all training courses and webinar videos and downloads)*

* Most of my content is free access to accommodate students and others with limited funds. However, platforms like Vimeo where this document and other training materials are hosted charge for their service, so a subscription fee helps defray the associated expenses.
