According to IRENA’s World Energy Transition Outlook, hydrogen and its derivates are projected to make up 14% of global total final energy consumption by 2050 in a world aiming to stay under a 1.5-degree temperature increase. The eighth meeting of the Collaborative Framework on Green Hydrogen, therefore addressed the barriers stakeholders face when entering and building up supply chains, after having focused the demand side on its previous meeting.
At the IRENA Innovation Week, the IRENA Director-General Francesco La Camera underlined that “rapid green hydrogen scale-up lies on a systemic innovation approach beyond technology, which means we need innovative regulatory and policy frameworks, finance, and business models.”
