Western Canada is well-positioned to become a global leader in the transition to a net-zero emissions energy future. With hydrogen playing a key role as a low cost, low carbon energy alternative, the Edmonton region is well-positioned to act as Canada’s first hydrogen HUB.
This workshop outlines:
- Where the demand markets are
- What the expectations are
- Next steps to positioning Canada as a top-three global supplier of hydrogen to international markets.
Stakeholders from key export markets shared their perspectives on:
- Hydrogen demand profile (domestic production, imports)
- Sector Applications and Trends
- Hydrogen form (e.g. NH3/ LH2 / Other)
- Production Expectations (e.g. GHG intensity measurement)
- Timelines
- Cost Expectations
- Commitment Period
