[Impact Webinar] Driving Japan's Green Energy Revolution: Unleashing Wind to Hydrogen Potential

Japan's journey toward achieving net-zero emissions presents a distinctive route due to the country's specific challenges. In pursuit of both energy affordability and independence, the synergistic combination of wind and hydrogen emerges as a potential solution for a meticulously planned future. Comparable to efforts in Germany and the UK, where hybrid projects intertwining wind, hydrogen, and ammonia are fervently advancing. Could this approach serve as an innovative strategy for Japan's sustained progress toward net-zero goals in the long term? In this webinar, we cordially extended an invitation to prominent industry stakeholders to delve into, discuss, and deliberate upon the wind-hydrogen ecosystem's scope and opportunities within the unique context of Japan.
