GTI Energy and Hydrogen Forward hosted a discussion series focused on the need to drive hydrogen demand. While much of the U.S. hydrogen conversation focuses on production, including various pathways and the tax credit, this series is intended to delve deeper into the industries and sectors that will be leveraging hydrogen to decarbonize their operations in the years ahead.
From industrial processes and the power sector to on- and off-road transportation, hydrogen will play a critical role in helping to decarbonize broadly across the U.S. economy. Learn from unique perspectives, including industry, think tanks, NGOs, and others, as we dive deeper into the issues that will help grow domestic hydrogen demand.
Webinar 2: Fueling Hydrogen Adoption for Clean Transportation
July 30, 2024
In the U.S., the transportation sector is the largest greenhouse contributor, and most of it comes from on-road transport. Hydrogen has been widely recognized as a solution to help decarbonize transportation, but many challenges to its widespread adoption remain, such as refueling infrastructure, cost, and other technologies.
In this session, expert panelists will discuss near-term opportunities, potential risks, and where the gaps still exist in educating and communicating with stakeholders.
