Calgary Region Hydrogen Hub
Hydrogen is expected to play an important role in the world’s future energy system, especially in industries without a promising pathway to electrification.
The Calgary Region Hydrogen Hub will connect the region’s hydrogen ecosystem, enhancing collaboration between Alberta’s hydrogen producers and the businesses and facilities that will act as demand centres for consumption. Our expert advisory teams bring together leaders from the industries with the potential to anchor a viable hydrogen economy to coordinate research and initiatives, facilitate application of hydrogen solutions and overcome barriers to hydrogen development.
To support the growth of our hydrogen sector, the Hub’s insights and analysis will be freely accessible, and our in-person and online events will encourage collaboration and knowledge-sharing. With an initial focus on airports, heat and power, hydrogen corridors, industrial and municipal fleets, and trains, we’re working to hone the competitive edge that will help the region succeed.
Objectives:
Understand the barriers to a hydrogen economy
Build awareness of the hydrogen opportunity
Host strategic conversations across the value chain
Promote investment and pilot projects
Find out what’s being done to support the hydrogen economy in the Calgary region.
