Hydrogen Industrial Series - North America | 14 JULY 2021 h2northamerica.com
Hydrogen has been talked about for decades, but only recently
HYDROGEN things have appeared to be accelerating, as investments and
INDUSTRIAL government support are growing, and the hydrogen technology is
SERIES ready to further scale-up. Hydrogen will play a crucial role in
NORTH AMERICA meeting the net zero target by the year 2050, as it could help
decarbonization efforts in a number of sectors, particularly
important in sectors that are hard to electrify and where greeouse
gas emissions are difficult to abate. However, a number of
regulatory issues will need to be addressed before hydrogen can
play a larger role in the domestic industries.
Hydrogen Industrial Series 2021 - North America will delve deep
to uncover the potential for hydrogen across North America. On
14 July 2021 we will gather the key industry stakeholders in the
entire hydrogen and fuel cells industry value chain, to discuss the
role of hydrogen in the energy transition, to hear the latest
advancements in its production, distribution and storage, and at
the same time showcase the best practices and models to recoize
14 July 2 0 2 1 and seize the opportunities to generate new revenue and stay
ahead of the competition.

AGENDA
Wednesday 14 July 2021 Pacific Standard Time (PST)
08:50 Chairman’s Opening Remarks
09:00 SESSION 1
THE EMERGING HYDROGEN ECONOMY – NORTH AMERICAN MARKET OVERVIEW
The emerging hydrogen economy has great potential to enhance the North American energy
security and vastly reduce the emission of greenhouse gases. The growing international
develompent of hydrogen infrastructure, trade, and technology is creating unique partnerships
across nations and continents. What has changed since the 2016th Paris agreement in the North
American hydrogen sector?
• US Hydrogen Road Map: California and Texas leading the way
• Canada, the first North American country to develop a national hydrogen strategy
Bill Zobel, Executive Director, California Hydrogen Business Council
Mark Kirby, President and CEO, Canadian Hydrogen Fuel Cell Association
Alberto Escofet, Country Manager, Enagás
10:00 SESSION 2
HYDROGEN PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGIES: CURRENT STATE AND FUTURE
DEVELOPMENTS
Increasing concerns about carbon emissions and the need to decarbonize the industrial,
commercial, transport, and power sectors have forced countries to reduce their dependency on
fossil fuel-based systems and increase deployment of renewable energy sources. The vast majority
of the hydrogen produced today for industrial use is the so-called “grey” hydrogen. On the other
hand, at a cost of about $6/kg, green hydrogen is the most expensive form of hydrogen to produce.
• Utilizing green hydrogen to achieve net-zero emissions
• Green hydrogen: a catalyst accelerating transition toward sustainable green economy
• Opportunities for hydrogen production from renewable and sustainable energy resources
• Going green or going blue: what is the optimal mix?
• Hydrogen electrolyzers lowering the cost of hydrogen production making it more competitive
Thomas Murray, VP Decarbonization Technology, Vermont Gas Systems
11:00 – 11:30 Morning Networking Break
Organized by: | 06Hydrogen Industrial Series - North America | 14 JULY 2021 h2northamerica.com
11:30 Panel Discussion
SCALING UP HYDROGEN PRODUCTION AND MEETING THE GROWING DEMAND:
GLOBAL TRENDS, CHALLENGES AND BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES
Today, the production of hydrogen is responsible for 830 million tonnes of CO2 emissions per
year. Reducing emissions from existing hydrogen production is a challenge but also represents an
opportunity to increase the scale of clean hydrogen worldwide.
• Economic aspects on hydrogen production: is hydrogen truly cost competitive fuel?
• Using gas networks to scale up hydrogen
• Growing opportunities for international hydrogen production and trade on a global scale
• Prospects for building a hydrogen energy infrastructure

15:40 – 16:10 Afternoon Networking Break
16:10 SESSION 5
ARE HYDROGEN FUEL CELL ELECTRIC VEHICLES THE FUTURE OF THE PASSENGER AND
FREIGHT TRANSPORT?
Hydrogen and fuel cells are critical elements in the decarbonization of the transportation sector.
Many experts nowadays believe that we will soon find ourselves using fuel cells to generate electri-
cal power for all sorts of objects we use in our everyday lives. But even with the rapid
technical advances fuel cells cannot yet compete economically with the more traditional energy
technologies.
• Hydrogen fuel cells, pros and cons
• The roadmap to the commercialization of hydrogen FCEVs
• Hydrogen - the solution to heavy duty vehicles decarbonization
• Hydrogen powered air transportation: how far is it from becoming a reality?
16:30 SESSION 6
THE ROLE OF HYDROGEN IN DECARBONIZING MARITIME & PORT OPERATIONS
Sea ports are users of heavy diesel equipment and are under pressure to reduce emissions that lead
to poor air quality and contribute to global warming. Marine applications also show strong potential
for hydrogen adoption in both the U.S. and Canada.
• Hydrogen and fuel cells in maritime and port applications
• Ports paving the way for the hydrogen sector
16:50 SESSION 7
IS GREEN HYDROGEN THE FUEL OF THE FUTURE?
Currently, green hydrogen accounts for less than 1% of the total hydrogen produced.
The global demand for green hydrogen and its emerging applications is expected to increase
exponentially in the next 30 years. Will this be the fuel of the future?
• Is green hydrogen the future of electricity storage?
• Green hydrogen is gaining momentum, but still has a long way to go before becoming main
stream
