Event Recordings & Presentation Slides
The Netherlands published its hydrogen strategy in the form of the “Government’s vision on hydrogen” letter in March 2020. The nation anticipates using its “unique position” to develop a strong standing in the Hydrogen market. With an international outlook on Hydrogen, the country is well on its way to building Europe’s first hydrogen valley in the North with one of Europe’s largest green hydrogen projects already under development in Groningen. It plans on using the extensive gas network already in place and geographical location to capitalise on the molecule.
Watch the recordings to discover what strategies are being put in place for blending, debate the region’s biggest challenges and opportunities and uncover the plans for ports such as Rotterdam at this insightful conference. Dive deep into case studies, debating future regulatory standards and consider what the future will bring.

Technologies to decarbonize hydrogen production
The challenges of the energy transition require addressing short and long-term solutions for production of low-carbon energy sources including carbon capture, handling and utilization; as well as addressing the needs for generation, storage and utilization of future energy sources.
Cost-effective deeply decarbonized blue hydrogen production is available today at desired scale for both new plants and retrofits.
Innovative and tailored hydrogen technology provides opportunities to drive down the cost of production and reduce environmental impact to address the market needs.
