Description
The two-day programme includes keynote speeches, dedicated sessions on the success stories and lessons learned from advanced Hydrogen Valley projects, and insights into key challenges such as permitting, licensing, and skills development.
The event will present significant initiatives such as the H2 Valleys Facility and the European Commission’s Hydrogen & Derivatives Mechanism transparency platform.
Building on the successful efforts of the Clean Hydrogen JU, which has already supported over 20 hydrogen valleys across Europe, the new H2 Valleys Facility will accelerate the creation of additional hydrogen valleys by providing technical, financial, and legal Project Development Assistance (PDA), guiding projects from the pre-feasibility stage through to final investment decisions.
Discussions will further focus on lead markets in mobility and industry, and address the crucial topic of financing hydrogen projects, concluding with networking opportunities to facilitate collaboration and innovation.
The event is jointly organised by the Clean Hydrogen Partnership and the European Commission.
