As our Second Annual Hydrogen Policy Leaders Convention quickly approaches this March, we reflect on the successes of our first policy convention. At our first policy conventions there was a 1:1 ratio of policymakers and industry members. With the 45V guidance still being under discussion, and hydrogen hubs receiving funding across the country, having this level of access to policymakers will be an insurmountable opportunity. Check out the recap from our first convention and purchase your tickets below! https://lnkd.in/eCSkajyn https://lnkd.in/ebYWJpAW #ushydrogenalliance #hydrogen #cleanhydrogen #hydrogennow #hydrogeneconomy #hydrogenhubs #fuelcell #zeroemission #energy #cleanenergy #decarbonization #sustainability

"82% of our global energy consumption is fossil fuels," notes Dr. Holly Krutka in this episode of 60 Minutes. The segment emphasizes the need for diverse energy sources and innovations, not just electricity, to achieve net zero, pointing to proven, innovative technologies like carbon capture as a necessary part of the solution.

This June #hydrogenindustry experts will convene at the #CAHydrogenSummit to identify steps needed to increase the use of #hydrogen and related technologies and explore policy mechanisms the state can deploy to commercialize California's #hydrogenmarket. https://ow.ly/kuci50RnxYp

Democracy in action... One of the many things I appreciate about Ron Ben-David is the ability and moral courage to think both expansively and practically for the public good. It's widely recognised that democracy - government of the people, for the people - is facing strong headwinds in the West. At a time like this, we need more, not less, of the considered, respectful contest of ideas from the bottom-up. True democracy cannot ultimately be outsourced to top-down official fiats. Whether readers agree with every point made is *not* the point. All intelligent, considered arguments must be engaged with for a public policy process to be considered trustworthy. (Sidenote: perhaps it's no coincidence that we are now continuously noting the loss of trust in the energy sector). I for one am appreciative of the contributions that such colleagues make. Thank you, Ron, for practically demonstrating a healthy democratic process in action.

Yesterday Fiona Mwacharo, our senior regulatory specialist at Hycamite TCD Technologies, and I had the opportunity to attend the webinar that certainly let us in the adaptation process companies are going through to make the most of the #hydrogen 🇭 production credits by the IRA. As we grasp new proposed regulations (IRS Clean Hydrogen Guidance), it's fascinating to witness the learning curve flatten. From 45V to 45Q Elizabeth Crouse´s introductory and objective presentation set the stage for Cam LeHouillier´s most interesting questions. Just to give you an example: ⚫How did the proposed regulations affect your organization? 🟢How does new regulations affect renewables ♻️? 🔵 Who benefits from 45V and the proposed regulations? And the answers were, as you could imagine "It is complicated", there are no winners or loosers, many companies will need to go back to the drawing board and see how their projects can apply for the tax credits if the porposed guidelines remain unchanged, however, nothing is set on stone and if your process does not benefit from the new proposed guidelines, it was encouraged to comment on them on 📅 February 26th - ideally through trade associations - and follow/participate on the public hearing on March 25th. We are optimistic that we can help decarbonize industry rapidly and look forward to the future. Thank you Aaron Feaver and Vishal Agarwal for extending the invitation to us. Thank you to all the panelists for your honest opinions on the subject. We look forward to having meetings with many of the panelists soon and continue learning and reaching our goals for a cleaner future 🌏. #decarbonization #hydrogeneconomy

Carbon Capture projects with different technologies on different timelines and differing potential impacts are being proposed & considered across Minnesota.

Our UK arm, AvantiGas, joined insightful discussions at the 2024 Liquid Gas UK Annual Conference on what a new UK government could mean for the LPG and rLG industries with Francesca Kirtley Paine from Liquid Gas UK, Tom Bradley from Cavendish, Mike Foster of The Energy and Utilities Alliance (EUA), and Michael Patrick Kelly from the World Liquid Gas Association.   It’s clear that liquid gases can play a vital role in meeting the UK's current energy demands while offering a flexible, low-carbon solution for industries and off-grid communities. The panel highlighted the importance of maintaining a reliable and adaptable energy mix as the country navigates future changes in policy and regulation.   In the UK and across Europe, we’re committed to supporting our customers and ensuring they have access to clean, efficient energy solutions that meet today’s challenges.   #LiquidGas #LPG #LGUKCardiff2024
