BIG HIT

Hydrogen presents an exciting opportunity to help achieve the global energy transition to a low carbon economy. With its history of innovation and technology development for the oil and gas industry, Scotland could be at the forefront of this transition creating new opportunities for businesses.

This complimentary one-day conference will explore the vision and opportunity for hydrogen as well as its production and applications. Adele Lidderdale from Orkney Islands Council will present on the Surf n Turf and BIG HIT projects, as well as the next steps with ITEG and the HySeas III hydrogen ferry.

Reykjavik, Iceland, is hosting the Nordic Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Conference 2018. This conference will focus on vehicle and infrastructure deployment with emphasis on the H2ME projects in the Nordic countries.

The FCH JU is actively working with European regions and cities on deployment of fuel cell and hydrogen (FCH) based products to help them achieve their decarbonisation goals. The FCH JU established the Regions and Cities Initiative to identify the most promising early market business cases, and almost 100 regions and cities are now signed up to the Memorandum of Understanding.

This one day conference will look at the current and potential use of hydrogen and fuel cells as a zero emission fuel and energy source for the port and maritime industries. It is being organised by European Policy Solutions with the support of the University of Hull.

The UK workshop for the FCH-JU2 supported HyLaw project will identify the legal and regulatory barriers to the deployment of fuel cells and hydrogen applications. This workshop will be interactive, seeking to identify application related best practices and combine UK industry experience with regulatory and legal issues across the spectrum of hydrogen and fuel cell activities such as zoning, permitting and approvals, grid connections, and safety case assessment.

ESCS2019 brings together key industry figures to focus on the future of energy storage in the UK; covering practical examples of storage that are currently being deployed and how they integrate into a broader network of connected systems including smart buildings, grids and electric vehicle infrastructure.

The 15th International Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Conference will look at all aspects of the commercialisation of the Hydrogen and Fuel Cell sector with presentations from policy makers , companies operating in this sector and also users of the technology.
