Let's Shape The Clean Hydrogen Future Together
"Having delved into the hard-to-unpack realms of sustainable energy and hydrogen for many years, we felt the need to craft “Quo Vadis Clean Hydrogen? #RemovigTheBox” as a beacon of clarity. Both educational for new hydrogen enthusiasts while providing added-value for seasoned experts also, this book offers an exploration of Clean Hydrogen's trajectory at the intersection of countless key market, environmental and policy factors.
This Joint Hydrogen, CleanTech & Water Leaders Roadmap navigates hydrogen complexities with precision, making it an indispensable read for policymakers, industry leaders, and all who are dedicated to forging a regenerative world departing from harmful carbon-intensive energies.
As co-lead author, I'm proud to have contributed this useful piece of knowledge, hoping it will help catalyze our transformation towards a just Paris-compatible world."
