About this event
No and low carbon hydrogen is seen as a key part of decarbonisation of the energy system - not a week goes by without an announcement about a new mega project, a national plan, or an industry transforming trial.
Although there is uncertainty around the future uses of hydrogen, the demand from its existing uses can be captured and, in times of uncertain fossil prices, no-carbon hydrogen can be increasingly competitive.
In this Sustainability Delivery Group Expert Talk, Sam Mackilligin, Energy Strategy & Growth Director - EUR & India at AECOM, will explore best practice and implementation challenges for green hydrogen, and:
- Assess what green hydrogen means in reality, and where it will be used and produced
- Outline the barriers to delivering no-carbon hydrogen, including securing the three main ingredients - lots of renewable energy, fresh water, and electrolysers, and the challenge to secure supplies of all of these
- Discuss how AECOM are working with clients to unlock and overcome these challenges, using case study examples
