Zero-Carbon Hydrogen Use in Today’s Energy System
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24 FROM 9:00AM - 10:30 PST. Hydrogen is rapidly emerging as a key fuel and ingredient to lower greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change in critical sectors of the global economy. But for hydrogen to make a significant contribution to the clean energy transition, we need policy options that overcome technical and commercial challenges, and allow hydrogen to be more broadly adopted for use in industrial processes, transportation and power generation.
To discuss how hydrogen can be made and used today in service of economic growth and rapid decarbonization, Columbia University’s Center on Global Energy Policy is pleased to host a panel of exceptional policy, technology, and commercial experts:
