Hydrogen Hub: Building a Financeable Value Chain 2023 | Information Forecast, Inc | 28 August 2023 | Hilton Houston Post Oak by the Galleria, 2001 Post Oak Blvd, Houston, TX 77056, USA

It is the major event where all the communities in the hydrogen hub value chains will come together in one spot to discuss how to launch a new national hydrogen economy. Leaders from transportation, industrial gas distribution, pipeline, carbon-free hydrogen production technology and renewable energy communities—communities that normally don't communicate amongst themselves in the ordinary course of events—will be on hand to share their perspectives on what is needed to form an efficient and effective value chain to commercialize clean hydrogen production and distribution.

No single community will be able to create a viable hydrogen hub project. Only through intense cooperative efforts will this be possible. This means that all the communities in the value chain will need to obtain a detailed understanding of the capabilities, challenges and needs of the other communities in the value chain to enable the industry to move forward.

The goals of the Summit are to provide an opportunity to further profound conversations between various communities in the value chain and to provide a powerful venue where these communities can fully understand how to build links within the value chain that are necessary to make hydrogen hubs a reality. Don't miss this unique forum where each of the communities will discuss their activities in getting prepared to support clean hydrogen production, distribution and end-use; outline the key technical, organizational, economic, and financial challenges they face and then identify the types of relationships with others that need to be established in order for them to truly support their role in the value chain.

The Summit will also provide a rich opportunity for offline discussions, where everyone will have the chance to meet other groups from the value chain and to establish ongoing relationships, and thus serve as a springboard for more profound discussions in the future.
