[Impact LIVE] Bolstering a Pipeline-based Hydrogen Future for Europe

The success of a climate-neutral Europe by 2050 and that of renewable hydrogen will depend on a mature inter-regional hydrogen infrastructure in place. While integrating substantial volumes of green hydrogen into the system and connecting regions of supply and demand has been identified as a key approach, the most optimum pathways of delivery have yet to be defined, along with policy support, development of a regulated hydrogen market and offtake scaling up. This webinar aims to explore that future form of a high-performing EU hydrogen network by examining the current one and possible evolvement coupled with hydrogen corridors and various types of trading partnerships.
