Bridging Hydrogen Production and Consumption Market Dynamics
Let's Get the Lowdown on Hydrogen: Our Collaborative Event with CSIS
🏙️ Join us as we team up with the energizing experts at the Energy Security and Climate Change Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) in sunny LA! We're bringing together an all-star cast of industry leaders to explore the juicy details of the hydrogen economy.
Hydrogen, a shimmering star in the energy world, is a versatile energy carrier that's showing great promise in revolutionizing the automotive and electricity sectors. But it's more than just a pretty face, it takes a village to establish hydrogen's place in our energy ecosystem. That's why this event is all about connecting the dots between hydrogen supply sources, transportation networks, and user equipment. We're not just talking global collaborations here, we're talking pipelines and shipping channels that'll help unlock hydrogen's potential within regional systems as well.
Some of the key faces you'll see at the event include:
- Kiichiro Fujimoto, General Manager, Infrastructure Solution Department, Mitsubishi Corp
- Giovanna Pozzi, Head Renewables & Power Supply for Hydrogen, Snam SpA
- Neil Navin, VP Clean Energy Innovations, Southern California Gas Co
- Akira Muto, Consul General, Consulate General of Japan in Los Angeles
Oh, and did we mention that Jane Nakano, a senior fellow in the Energy Security and Climate Change Program at CSIS, will be among the featured speakers? Her expertise in U.S. energy policy, energy geopolitics, and global hydrogen and clean energy developments[1] means she's the perfect person to lend her insights to this vital conversation.
Don't Forget About Our Expert, Jane Nakano
Jane Nakano is a bit of an energy geek, focusing on U.S. energy policy, global market and policy developments concerning natural gas, nuclear energy, and critical minerals, and energy security and climate issues in the Asia-Pacific region[1]. In short, she was only too happy to join the conversation about building the blocks for a hydrogen economy!
Throughout the event, Nakano is likely to talk about the supply chain resilience of essential hydrogen technologies like fuel cells and electrolyzers[2] and the crucial role of international cooperation[2] in establishing a strong and diverse supply chain for proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell and electrolyzer technologies. This is all about ensuring that western manufacturing can catch up with China's dominance[2] and scale the manufacturing and deployment of these innovative technologies.
The Big Picture: More Than Just Technology
This event takes a holistic approach, shedding light on not only the necessary technological building blocks for a hydrogen economy but also the policy frameworks, international partnerships, and security considerations essential for realizing a thriving global hydrogen market. Nakano's insights into energy geopolitics and clean technology policy help ensure that the benefits of hydrogen technologies are maximized both in terms of decarbonization and strategic energy independence[1][2].
In essence, this event is all about harnessing the power of collaboration, knowledge, and innovation to get hydrogen ready to take center stage in our energy future. Don't miss out—join us for this dynamic and informative discussion about the Building Blocks for a Hydrogen Economy!
