Hydrogen Now Has Traction!

Thanks to modern advances in technology, the growing demand for energy worldwide, and a new level of awareness about how our actions impact the planet, hydrogen now has traction. Global spending on hydrogen energy research is on the rise. Governments, equipment manufacturers, and energy providers are investing in hydrogen development at an unprecedented rate. Support is coming from nations that both import and export energy, as well as renewable electricity suppliers, industrial gas producers, electricity and gas utilities, automakers, oil and gas companies, major engineering firms, and local municipalities. Please join us for this discussion about hydrogen being set to play a much larger role in the global energy mix as nations seek to lower emissions and diversify their energy portfolios.
