A focus on the emerging hydrogen ecosystem
The Innovation Agora Hydrogen Hub is a dedicated space focused on the emerging hydrogen ecosystem.
Amphitheater panels are the core of the Hydrogen Hub program, covering a range of topics in a concise format focusing on technology, project development, production, transportation economics, financing, and policy. Programing is supported by Lyceum learning sessions that introduce new themes and topics, often with a technology focus and in-depth Agora Pod presentations while receptions and informal meetings continue to build the Hydrogen Hub community.
Topics and key questions to be explored include:
-
Hydrogen policy and geopolitics: Setting the strategic visionHow will support for hydrogen development evolve globally in the wake of the US IRA?
-
Hydrogen’s impact on cars, trucks, aviation, and mobilityCan hydrogen compete with batteries?
-
Utilizing low-carbon solutions and industrial end-user applicationsWhen and how will industry adopt low-carbon hydrogen?
-
Hydrogen in power and gas marketsWhat infrastructure is necessary for hydrogen to back up intermittent renewables?
-
Geographies of HydrogenWhere will capital investment flow?
