The seminar will delve into significant aspects of hydrogen usage and the challenges facing its adoption. Despite two decades of advocacy for a hydrogen energy society, practical implementation remains limited, with many hydrogen-related projects worldwide encountering freezing or withdrawal. The gap between ideality and reality is often dismissed simply by citing high costs, hampering real progress.

However, it remains clear that the effective introduction of hydrogen into society is a crucial means toward achieving future decarbonization goals. The event aims to discuss necessary measures to transition from the public relations-centric approach currently dominating energy hydrogen to effective on-the-ground implementation.

Key Topics to be Discussed:



1. Hydrogen in the Energy Supply Chain
- (1) The Era of Decarbonization
- (2) The Increasing Complexity of Energy Systems

2. The Reality of Hydrogen Costs
- (1) Policy Objectives vs. Actual Costs
- (2) Trends in Hydrogen Supply

3. Moving Beyond PR-Centric Hydrogen
- (1) The Early Challenges in Key Areas (Mobility)
- (2) Next Steps in Various Sectors (Projects and Acceptable Risks)
