Countries should collaborate on hydrogen hubs
Hub facilities would develop skills and job creation, as well as improve standards for safety and regulation, according to NZTC report
Hydrogen-focused nations should work together to develop hydrogen hubs that are open to international collaboration and knowledge-sharing, according to a report from the UK-based Net Zero Technology Centre titled Closing the Gap. These facilities would develop skills and job creation, improve safety and develop a regulatory environment that could then be deployed within the respective participants’ energy infrastructure. High-priority, mid-technology-readiness-level technologies such as electrolysers and storage compressors could then be fast-tracked within these ‘living labs’ to accelerate their development. “The scale of the energy transition, coupled with growing global power consumption
