Upcoming Seminar on Hydrogen Infrastructure

On September 12, 2025, the Japan Planning Institute (JPI) is set to host a significant seminar delving into the latest trends in large-scale hydrogen infrastructure plans. This event will feature Dr. Ryushi Horita, a researcher from the Mitsui & Co. Strategic Research Institute, who will provide insights into the rapidly evolving landscape of hydrogen-related projects around the globe.
