Hydrogen is vital for our clean energy future, and at W. L. Gore & Associates (Gore), it drives our vision of a low-carbon energy system, especially evident in the transportation sector’s adoption of hydrogen as an energy source.
Continue readingToward a cross-border, global hydrogen trade market
To decarbonise the global economy as quickly, effectively and cost efficiently as possible, we need international trade of hydrogen to link sources of cheap renewable energy with areas of high demand. This is the focus of the Council’s brand-new report, Global Hydrogen Flows, released in October.

Hydrogen fuel cells packed into a pair of 40-foot-long shipping containers here ramped up on an overcast day early this June as engineers gathered around laptops displaying data on the state, health and power output of the cells in this first-of-a-kind hydrogen generator.
Continue readingHydrogen is a critical solution to climate change
Amidst the global energy crisis and rising gas prices, increased interest and investment in the hydrogen sector signify significant progress in renewables, highlighting its potential pivotal role in the future of global energy.
Continue readingThe path to net zero: Deploying both battery and fuel cell electric vehicle
The transportation sector emits about 24% of global CO2. Decarbonizing it requires a monumental industry shift, crucial for achieving global carbon neutrality.
Continue readingNew horizons for hydrogen trade: Transporting clean energy overseas
Transitioning to clean energy demands significant change, with global hydrogen demand needing to reach 140 MT by 2030 and 660 MT by 2050, up from 90 MT in 20201. Understanding the scale and complexity of this transition remains a challenge despite recognizing its necessity.
