Session 4 of the Zero to Hydrogen Hero Programme
It’s evident that those whose business currently depends on natural gas, wherever they lie in that value chain, have a particular interest in the development of hydrogen economies. This training examines the players who are active in hydrogen, with particular focus on those from the natural gas value chain and the projects they are promoting and investing into. It describes some of the opportunities and challenges that exist in transitioning from natural gas towards hydrogen blends; or, eventually, 100% hydrogen.
On the upstream (production) side, it will include issues around ‘blue hydrogen’, in particular the status and prospects for carbon capture and storage. Downstream, technical issues of infrastructure and equipment upgrades will be covered, along with business issues of market demand, policy, competition and economics.

What Attendees Are Saying
“Great overview with deep knowledge demonstrated over the course ”
“Slides were informative, good delivery from the trainer, and the technology worked well. Good idea to space it out over three days as it was less disruptive. ”
