Hydrogen is a fascinating gas that has inspired engineers and chemists for many decades. In the form of green hydrogen, produced from solar photovoltaic energy, it promises to bring carbon neutrality to multiple applications, including fertilizer production, steel production, and commercial aviation.
According to BloombergNEF, Brazil could be one of the most competitive producers of green hydrogen by 2050, which, in principle, opens up multiple opportunities, especially for the Brazilian Northeast. But what are these opportunities, and how can we take advantage of them?
In this webinar, we will explore the different facets of green hydrogen. We will address technological concepts, and detail the different applications of green hydrogen. We will analyze its competitiveness, compared to conventional hydrogen, and pay special attention to opportunities for Brazilian entrepreneurs and companies.
Both the recording and the presentation are made available to all registrants after the webinar.
