Hydrogen Town Hall: Key Trends in Global Hydrogen Policy and Regulation

Since the Paris Climate Conference, innovations in the development of hydrogen energy have accelerated sharply, with the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) now predicting green hydrogen will be competitive in 2030, while other industry experts are now targeting 2025. The recent COP26 climate summit has further boosted global investment in hydrogen, with companies across a range of sectors recognizing the potential and taking an active role in the development of the sector.

K&L Gates partners James Douglass in London, David Wochner in Washington, D.C., Kelly Davies in Sydney, Melanie Bruneau in Brussels, and Annette Mutschler-Siebert in Berlin, all members of our Hydrogen practice, held a town hall on 24 March 2022 to discuss global hydrogen policy and regulatory developments with moderator Sandra Safro, Associate General Counsel at the Edison Electric Institute, and co-host of Hydrogen Rising.
