Abstracting/Indexing Services and Journal Lists

Any discussion of energy-related issues, such as air pollution, global climate change, and energy supply security, energy efficiency, raises the issue of future use of alternative fuels. Hydrogen offers large potential benefits in terms of reduced emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases and improved efficiency in use from abundantly available feedstock. Nuclear energy is well placed to be a major contributor to large-scale hydrogen production.

The IJNHPA provides a venue for communication among researchers and policy analysts on the latest experimental and analytical results, economic and policy assessments, and technology innovations related to nuclear energy’s role in an expanding hydrogen economy. Although nuclear technology will play its most significant role in hydrogen production, knowledge of hydrogen transportation, storage and end use is necessary to understand the context in which nuclear energy will contribute to different hydrogen markets. Therefore, IJNHPA takes a broad approach in helping readers learn the latest thinking in the science, economics, and environmental impacts of nuclear-generated hydrogen.

 Go Top  Objectives

The objectives of IJHPA are to establish an effective channel of communication between professionals, policy makers, government agencies, academia and research institutions concerned with nuclear production of hydrogen and its applications. It also aims to provide authoritative, reliable information on hydrogen production and next generation technologies, economics, strategies and resources to industry and governments for use in policy analyses and decision making, including the contribution of nuclear hydrogen to sustainable development.

The international dimension is emphasised in order to overcome cultural and national barriers and to meet the needs of accelerating technological and ecological change and changes in the global economy.

The IJNHPA

  • Promotes the exchange of hydrogen production science and technology information
  • Promotes the intelligent application of hydrogen
  • Promotes international research and development cooperation
  • Supports nuclear power as a long-term option for hydrogen production in a competitive hydrogen economy
  • Helps in identifying technologies and resources available to address issues related to nuclear-generated hydrogen
  • Assesses the conditions and constraints related to nuclear power’s contribution to a growing hydrogen economy, including those tied to environmental objectives
  • Maintains information on the economic aspects of potential hydrogen markets

 Go Top  Contents

The IJNHPA publishes high quality papers relevant to hydrogen nuclear production technologies and applications, and closely related aspects of science, technology, engineering and policy analysis. Both original research and critical review papers covering experimental, theoretical, and computational issue are welcome. When outstanding new advances are made, or when new areas have been developed to a definitive stage, special review articles will be considered.

A fair balance will be sought between:

  • Special issues addressing specific topics, and
  • Issues blending articles addressing several topics.

 Go Top  Subject Coverage

The following list, which is not exhaustive, describes topics appropriate to IJNHPA:

  • Hydrogen production methods
  • R&D programmes on nuclear production of hydrogen
  • Applications of nuclear energy for hydrogen production
  • Hydrogen storage
  • Hydrogen transmission, distribution and delivery
  • Design and economy of hydrogen nuclear production systems
  • Environmental and safety considerations
  • Hydrogen markets
  • Safeguards and physical security
  • Quality assurance
  • Public attitudes and public acceptance
  • The role of hydrogen in sustainable development
