EU-Japan Hydrogen Platform

EU-Japan Hydrogen Platform

*Online Meeting Sessions: October 15 - 18, 2024                                        *On-site meeting Sessions: October 23 - 24, 2024 (during HYDROGEN Technology EXPO EUROPE 2024)

Both Japan and the EU, committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, recognise hydrogen as an essential energy source. Each has developed hydrogen strategies, set targets, and is addressing various challenges on both the demand and supply sides.

The EU-Japan Hydrogen Platform has been opened as a tool to enable exchange between Japanese and European stakeholders and build practical business partnerships that will contribute to various hydrogen-related initiatives.

The Platform is based on the idea of open innovation. Registrants create profiles including their "Offers" and "Requests" / "Seeds" and "Needs", which will allow them to identify potential partners. 

Registered participants can browse each other's profiles and search for potential partners by keywords and categories. It is possible to send messages or request meetings, which will be pre-arranged on the online platform and take place either online on this platform, or onsite in Hamburg, Germany. 

A first round of online meetings will take place from October 15-18, followed by onsite meetings during the two-day HYDROGEN Technology EXPO EUROPE 2024 from October 23-24.

An Agenda with all available sessions will be added soon.
Registration will open on 5 September.
