On the 20 June – 7 July 2022, the Net Zero-Carbon Fuels course was conducted online. The unique transnational online course has attracted 43 students from 10 countries, forming a truly diverse group of students from different background. The students have experienced a cross-cultural online learning experience via different group activities, ice-breaking and networking session. More importantly, the students have learnt about the importance of low carbon/carbonless fuels, by considering the technical production, application, policy, economics and sustainability aspects, in alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals. To further enhance the students’ learning experience, two guest speakers have been invited, Professor Gus Nathan from University of Adelaide and Dr. Kevin Rouwenhorst from Ammonia Energy Association to share the industry perspectives. Overall, the students have gained a rich learning experience upon completion of the course. The credits gained from the course is transferrable, but the satisfaction gained from completing the course is truly unique and personal.
