With the rising urgency to move away from fossil fuels, and the potential role of clean hydrogen in this shift ever increasing, several technological and political challenges still lie ahead on the road to decarbonisation. While certain regions and industrial players favour a focus on green, many still see blue hydrogen as the most effective transition in the goal to reach net-zero targets. As the innovation and scope of projects around blue hydrogen and carbon capture and storage (CCS) continues, join us for our second edition of our virtual World Hydrogen Blue, CCS & Pyrolysis conference, where we will assess the market conditions and roadmap for everything blue and turquoise. During the event, we will look to discover:
Technological advantages in the development of CCS technology
The role blue hydrogen will play in transforming the highly successful existing natural gas industry
Policy and regulatory frameworks for the production and export of blue hydrogen
The applications and economics of producing solid carbon through pyrolysis
Speakers
