Tuesday, 1st May 2018, 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Registration for this event is closed

Join us for the latest edition in the Energy Conversation series hosted by the Centre for Energy Policy, on understanding the likely economic impacts of a potential shift to a significantly hydrogen-based energy system in Scotland and the UK.

The discussion will explore the potential economic multiplier effects of a transition to a hydrogen economy. It will consider the potential size and shape of UK hydrogen supply chains, and the implications of an integrated hydrogen economy delivering to multiple societal and industrial needs (e.g. both heat and transport).

Energy Conversations are open events and all are welcome to join us for an informative and interesting evening. The conversation will be shaped by you and the issues you see as most important. The evening’s conversation will be kicked off by Prof. Karen Turner, Director of the Centre for Energy Policy who will be joined by industry and policy experts.

Registration and refreshments will be available from 5.30pm and a networking reception will follow the event until 8.00pm.

The Centre for Energy Policy are hosting an event immediately prior to this event you may be interested in attending (Making the Macroeconomic Case for Carbon Capture and Storage?) from 3.00 – 5.00pm followed by refreshments.  Please select this option at the point of registration.
