Global plenary: The role of hydrogen as a clean energy vector

9th October 2020

The technological and economic feasibility of clean hydrogen is rapidly improving and more national governments are embracing hydrogen strategies. These strategies differ by continent as well as country, but all were pushed by climate neutrality goals and technology. What further government support, regulatory frameworks and interest from both society and investors do we need if we want to see hydrogen in 10% of the energy mix by 2040?
