About the event
With hydrogen playing a crucial role in achieving Net Zero, these sessions will provide valuable insights into its potential impacts, unpack common misconceptions and provide a forum for knowledge sharing. More importantly, the focus is on creating a ‘marketplace’ for hydrogen by connecting end users to the solution providers.
Who should attend?
Spanning academia, local authorities, innovators and industry, each session offers a unique perspective on the journey towards adopting hydrogen, including the challenges and opportunities it presents. While sessions are grouped by stakeholder groups, all are welcome to attend and can benefit from the discussions. You can find the details on each webinar below.
The webinars will also be utilised to receive live feedback to inform our future programs to support UK businesses and stakeholders.
