Is renewable hydrogen the missing link to fully decarbonize?

Andor Savelkouls, Senior Director of the European Energy Advisory at Altenex Energy, and Francois Paquet, Impact Director at the Renewable Hydrogen Coalition, join forces to discuss renewable hydrogen's role in decarbonizing energy-intensive sectors, new market opportunities for sustainable products like green steel, and the steps needed to grow the renewable hydrogen market at scale. The discussion is hosted by Elana Knopp, Senior Content Writer at Edison Energy.
What role will renewable hydrogen play for corporates seeking to address their value chain emissions? What are the current barriers to accelerating the uptake of renewable hydrogen in Europe and globally? How will the ongoing war in Ukraine impact the energy crisis going forward, and what could this mean for the renewable hydrogen sector? Find out on the latest edition of Green Mic! Renewable hydrogen is seen by many as key to reaching carbon neutrality, particularly in energy-intensive industries and hard to decarbonize sectors like aviation and shipping. Yet today, renewable hydrogen still represents a modest fraction of the European and global energy mix and is primarily produced from fossil fuels like natural gas and coal.
