    The North Sea: A beacon for a low-carbon energy future

    Hydrogen

    The World Energy Cities Partnership (WECP) cities are home to many green hydrogen companies that are leading initiatives to build a lower-carbon energy future, developing the full range of energy sources to power the world today and into tomorrow. As hydrogen hubs, WECP cities and mayors are leading voices on sustainable economic development, climate action and building more resilient cities. This applies not least to the WECP North Sea region cities of Aberdeen, Esbjerg and Stavanger that are at the forefront when it comes to driving the energy transition with green hydrogen.
