Houston to host key hydrogen summit as industry faces new political landscape
The hydrogen industry in North America is entering a phase of unprecedented uncertainty. The outcome of the U.S. presidential election presents a unique set of challenges and opportunities that will significantly impact the future of hydrogen initiatives. Key questions loom large under a new Trump administration: What will government funding for hydrogen look like? Will deregulation occur, and if so, what will its impact be? How will advanced planning hydrogen projects and secured offtake agreements move forward? What lies ahead for hydrogen hubs, and how will trade policies affect the hydrogen supply chain and export opportunities?
With so much opportunity at stake –$320 billion in hydrogen investments announced globally through 2030 and North America leading the way with committed capital of $10 billion – it is imperative that industry leaders collaborate.
Against this backdrop, the upcoming World Hydrogen North America Congress is poised to convene in Houston from March 31st – April 2nd 2025. Organized by World Hydrogen Leaders, now part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, the event will unite over 1,000 key players across the entire hydrogen value chain to align on solutions to current obstacles, forge new partnerships and accelerate the building of a robust hydrogen market.
Dom Coyne , Program Director at World Hydrogen Leaders, commented: “World Hydrogen North America 2025 is not just another conference; it is an essential guide to navigating these uncharted waters.
