FCA Events | Green Hydrogen Day
The Green Hydrogen Day, co-hosted with UN Climate Change's Global Innovation Hub, focused on the core value chain of green hydrogen and its innovation gaps, taking into consideration that hydrogen demand is predicted to increase massively and huge challenges remain to produce, store and transport the quantities of green hydrogen needed for a net-zero future. During this day, we engaged those stakeholders on both the public and private side that will play a pivotal role in accelerating the massive transition of many industry sectors. Watch the full recordings of our sessions:
A Realistic Assessment on the Current State of Green Hydrogen
In this introductory session we addressed the current status of hydrogen production, and the industry’s transformation to green hydrogen (from a techno-economical standpoint).
The Heavy Industry Perspective
This session aimed at looping in innovators and analysts to focus on existing challenges in transforming existing industrial sectors and how these can be resolved. Each representative described their specific, concrete demands in switching to green hydrogen and the roadblocks on the way to get there.
Enabling the development and up scaled deployment of GH2 through Systemic Innovation
This session focused on looping in policy-makers that affect innovation and drive hydrogen development at world-leading scale. Our particular question in this context was “What is needed to support systemic innovation?”
The Innovators' Laboratory
Incorporating entrepreneurs and consortia working on green hydrogen, we focused on present and alternative technologies and how to scale innovation along the value chain. Beginning with a presentation by UNIDO on key findings from their upcoming Green Hydrogen Industrial Clusters Guidelines, this session then turned to a discussion with innovators developing hydrogen technologies.

Building Our Future: Innovative Technology to Decarbonize the Cement Industry
In this Climate Action Hub session we focused on cement decarbonization and addressed, among others, the questions: what makes cement such a hard sector to decarbonize? which specific process steps need to be solved and what are the best options so far? which kind of breakthrough innovations are in the making? what kind of government support is needed to transform the cement industry?

Catalyzing Cost-Effective Hydrogen Imports in Europe | CATF | Zero-Carbon Future Pavilion
This Panel discussion focused on presenting the European hydrogen import value chain economics, including the most promising locations and carriers for Europe to import hydrogen. The event highlighted how marine transport of low-carbon hydrogen to Europe could be approached across the supply chain, with ammonia being the most economical of all the hydrogen carriers assessed. The panellists also discussed the key technology innovation required to enable hydrogen value chain development.
