Hear From Top Executives About Cutting-Edge Business Strategies for Capturing the Vast Opportunities in Hydrogen and Hydrogen Derivatives

While the U.S. has focused incentives on the production side of the hydrogen economy, the success of innumerable clean hydrogen projects will depend on exporting H2 and its derivatives such as ammonia and e-methane to Asian and European markets. Stiff mandates in those markets are driving the Asian and European offtakers to obtain supplies of low-emission hydrogen and its derivatives — which U.S. producers are well positioned to supply. However, to meet this global demand, U.S. production must be scaled up, tax credits and private capital obtained, and international offtake contracts and transportation arrangements secured. Only those who understand how to meet the challenges of both producing clean hydrogen and navigating the complexities of supplying international markets will be able to seize this remarkable opportunity.

Infocast's Global Clean Hydrogen: American Production and International Markets will provide project developers, buyers, and financiers with the information they need to establish winning strategies for global clean hydrogen markets. It will bring developers together with leading financial institutions, international decarbonization leaders, and hydrogen market experts to share their experiences, insights, and ideas on how to move the industry forward. Attend the Global Clean Hydrogen: American Production and International Markets to:

  • Assess the opportunities to supply clean hydrogen and derivatives such as ammonia and methanol to international and domestic markets
  • Hear what international buyers are looking for in offtake arrangements
  • Learn where Hydrogen Hub award winning projects stand, and their paths forward
  • Examine how scaling up clean hydrogen production and transportation is working to reduce the costs of delivery to international and domestic markets
  • Learn how to meet 45V hourly matching requirements, and how to structure projects to obtain tax equity and commercial financing
  • Hear what will be needed to establish clean hydrogen commodity markets, both domestically and globally, and how first steps are now being taken to make them a reality
