Delegates at the ‘World Future Energy Summit on Hydrogen‘, which runs at Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) from 16-18 January and is the leading business event for future energy and sustainability, will deep dive into the realities of a green hydrogen economy, during the event.
Summit-goers will discover the latest technologies driving the hydrogen revolution at the new Hydrogen Innovation Hub, which consists of SMEs and startups, speed networking dedicated to green hydrogen professionals, and live podcast recordings focused on green hydrogen.
Attendees will also witness the inaugural Green Hydrogen Summit organised by Masdar in partnership with IRENA and the Atlantic Council. The Summit will demonstrate Abu Dhabi’s achievements to date and its ambitions to become a global hub for innovation and investment in this sector, while providing a platform for leading hydrogen players worldwide to meet and exchange views.
The importance of green hydrogen to the regional energy mix has never been more prevalent. With the recent hosting of COP 27 in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, not only were new deals brokered to boost green hydrogen capacity, including Elsewedy Electric and ReNew Power signing a partnership to develop a green hydrogen project in Egypt capable of producing 220,000 tonnes per annum of green hydrogen, but country’s such as Chile securing millions in funding to bolster their green hydrogen output.

Event partner, Masdar, one of the world’s fastest-growing clean energy companies, has also identified Africa as a continent that could capture as much as 10 percent of the global green hydrogen market, thereby helping to create up to 3.7 million jobs while adding as much as US$120 billion to the continent’s gross domestic product.
This is according to a landmark report, “Africa’s Green Energy Revolution: Hydrogen’s role in unlocking Africa’s untapped renewables,” issued on the sidelines of COP27 by Masdar and its Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (ADSW) platform, with analytical support provided by McKinsey & Company.
