Positioning Hydrogen 2025 Conference, Dubai,UAE: An international green hydrogen event.

Positioning Hydrogen 2025 is the 4th global hydrogen conference and expo scheduled for September 27-28, 2025 in Dubai, UAE is a must-attend hydrogen technology event and Expo in 2025. The conference will bring together participants from the entire hydrogen value chain with the goal of exhibiting solutions and innovations for low-carbon hydrogen production, efficient storage and distribution, safety and emergency services, and applications in a wide range of industries. Industrial experts and decision makers from around the world will talk about and show off the latest technologies, engineering solutions, and future trends.

As the world's largest economies benefit from implementing hydrogen strategies, global markets are capitalising on hydrogen's momentum to decide where to invest in hydrogen projects. The enthusiasm encompassing hydrogen is being tapped by global market and industry leaders to influence policy, discourse, and the energy landscape.

Hydrogen is predicted to generate $700 billion in investment by 2030 in order to meet global requirements. The investment roadmap, on the other hand, remains foggy. Uncertain policies and frameworks, the supply-and-demand dilemma, financing ambiguity, and a lack of infrastructure all impede the growth of the global clean hydrogen economy.

The only way to address these issues is through open collaboration and knowledge exchange. The Positioning Hydrogen 2025 conference and exhibition brings together global leaders from the public and private sectors, ranging from energy producers and off-takers to financiers, technology providers, and policymakers, all with one goal in mind: to transition hydrogen from pilot to full-scale bankable projects.

Themes Defining our Green Hydrogen Event

Global hydrogen potential and leadership: With the plunging cost of renewables, the potential for green hydrogen is enormous. To establish a hydrogen economy, representatives in policy, investment, energy, and industry must work together to take advantage of the opportunity that hydrogen brings to the global energy environment.

Net zero-emission objectives: Due to the constraints of electrification, sky rocketing oil price, is hydrogen the future fuel that will enable net-zero targets? How can the required hydrogen demand be achieved and what off-taker methods or subsidy assistances are required to boost demand? Hear from industrial off takers in metallurgy, manufacturing, industrial applications, shipping, aerospace, and automobiles about their approach to the hydrogen economy and how it fits into their massive net zero objectives.

Commercialisation:As with any other commodity, green and low-carbon hydrogen need to achieve prices that are competitive and economically sustainable. Although worldwide electrolyser capacity benchmarks may have been established, how will companies ramp up production to achieve these targets and support net-zero goals? Meet the leading innovators and leaders of gigantic initiatives aiming for $2 or less hydrogen and learn from them.

Infrastructure:: Massive capital investments are required to build up the value chain for facilities such as bulk hydrogen storage and mass transportation over land and sea. Much has already been achieved, for example, by using existing gas pipelines to store and transport hydrogen blended with natural gas. At the same time, hubs, port facilities and clusters have cropped up around the world to highlight the benefits of hydrogen being consumed near where it is produced. Learn about the foremost obstacles to establishing hydrogen-ready infrastructure and how to tackle them.

Funding for the hydrogen economy: The Energy transitions commission estimated that between now and 2050, $15 trillion would be needed to support hydrogen economy. Despite the current buzz surrounding green and blue hydrogen, the International Energy Agency has shown that less than 4% of planned projects have reached financial investment decision. Learn how more projects can be funded made more viable by taking advantage of the current wave of green financing, as well as new off-take agreement models.

Hydrogen Industry skill development:The nascent hydrogen industry is currently short of people with the necessary technical and engineering skills required to build successful projects. Providing competency training for the next generation technicians and engineers is therefore essential for a sustainable hydrogen industry.

Safety, risk and emergency management: Safety is a key consideration for the hydrogen industry. Safety in design is an important element for a successful project outcome and, as we build our knowledge of the safety aspects associated with hydrogen so should our ability to manage hazards and risks, and provide guidance for emergency services and first responders.

Innovations in Storage and Transportation:Hydrogen storage and transportation are pivotal challenges in harnessing this versatile energy carrier. Innovations in efficient storage methods, such as solid-state materials and underground caverns, alongside advanced transportation technologies, like pipelines and fuel cell vehicles, are crucial for unlocking hydrogen's potential as a clean and sustainable form of energy.
