Hydrogen Transition Summit

About this Summit

An increasing number of nations are including hydrogen as a key aspect of their transition strategies, with some already having dedicated hydrogen plans. As governments are due to submit their updated Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) ahead of COP26, hydrogen will play a critical role in meeting 2030 targets and beyond.
The Hydrogen Transition Summit was presented in 4 sessions over 2 days exploring the role of clean hydrogen as a key driver of the transition to net-zero. The Summit brought together stakeholders from across the policy, investment, technology and regulation spectrum to discuss the key action points needed in order to make the hydrogen economy a reality.
