[Impact Webinar] Towards the Next Level: Showcasing Japan's Flagship Hydrogen Projects and Initiatives
[Date & Time]: 14:30 - 16:00, GMT+9, September 27th, Friday
[Format]: Digital Conference (Zoom Webinar)
Webinar Background:
Japan stands at the forefront of the global hydrogen revolution, leading the charge towards a sustainable, hydrogen-based economy. By 2024, the nation boasts over 90 advanced hydrogen projects spanning production, transportation, and utilization. With ambitious goals of achieving 3 million tonnes of hydrogen supply by 2030 and 20 million tonnes by 2050, Japan has committed to a robust policy framework, including the Basic Hydrogen Strategy, and allocated ¥1 trillion ($7.5 billion) to drive innovation and development in this sector. As a result, Japan has become one of the most attractive regions for green hydrogen investments.
In this high-level webinar, “Towards the Next Level: Showcasing Japan’s Flagship Hydrogen Projects and Initiatives,” esteemed thought leaders from Japan's most prominent low-carbon hydrogen projects will share their insights and knowledge. Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of the entire lifecycle of successful hydrogen projects—from strategic planning and financing to execution and regulatory alignment. Attendees will also explore proven commercial strategies, engineering best practices, and the critical role of government support in making green hydrogen a reality in Japan.
