Making Investment and Action in Hydrogen Happen

 

Dr Graham Cooley - Making Investment and Action in Hydrogen Happen

For those of us involved with connecting portfolios and developers with finance this was an interesting session with something of a hero of mine and where scale, replicability and industrial demand was stressed throughout

As with City's October’s session:

 

 

The key points are that the hydrogen ramp us is real and happening now

To make it bankable

Scale and modularisation are essential

Also crucial:

Ammonia is progressing with Yara

Partnerships with Shell for Hydrogen

Replication for Leuna to help standardisation

Partnerships include Scottish power and electrolyser oil and gas

Strong outlook green hydrogen and long duration energy storage

Going forward ITMs second gigafactory opens at the end of 2023 with further automation and capacity helping increase output and decrease delivery times

 

The lively q and a stressed industrial customers to ensure the demand side it met, that green was better option than blue hydrogen and that water is not so much of a constraint as many believe.

Grey and existing hydrogen production can pivot to green an EU is driving Customers revenue model must work. So a stable long term policy environment to enable industrial customer to have a policy based roadmap and those already in development to get to Financial Close.

 

More tailored finance events are slated for London on April and May to keep the momentum going. Stay informed with over 2000 companies and stakeholders at the Business Opportunities for the Hydrogen Economy  Professionals Group
