DAY 2 | PROGRAM SESSIONS
The Australian Government is investing $ 1.4 billion in building a hydrogen industry, developing a National Hydrogen Strategy which plans to grow this industry and position Australia as a major player by 2030. Hydrogen is also acknowledged as an essential element for Australia’ s decarbonisation and for it to achieve its net zero emissions ambitions. As a fuel, it produces no carbon emissions, only water and can be used to fuel cells that generate electricity to power cars, trucks, buses, and trains. Not all hydrogens are created equal. Hydrogen itself is a clean fuel, however manufacturing hydrogen is energy-intensive and has carbon byproducts. The Australian Government is hedging its bets by supporting brown, grey and green hydrogen however there’ s little doubt brown and grey hydrogen are not clean! Join our expert guests who’ ll explain what hydrogen is, its various colors, its benefits & barriers and explore how it is likely to be adopted in Australia for transport.
