THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 23 AT 11:00AM EASTERN. Long duration energy storage systems – defined as technologies that can store energy for more than 10 hours at a time – are a critical component of a low-cost, reliable, carbon-free electric grid. In alignment with DOE’s Energy Earthshot Initiative, the recently announced Long Duration Storage Shot sets a bold target to reduce the cost of grid-scale energy storage by 90% within the decade.

Join thousands of stakeholders for the Long Duration Storage Shot Summit on Thursday, September 23, 2021 to learn more about how we can work together to achieve this goal and create affordable grid storage for clean power – anytime, anywhere.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22 AT 1:00PM EASTERN. A first-look at the Energy Futures Initiative’s (EFI) latest report, “The Future of Clean Hydrogen in the United States: Views From Industry, Market Innovators, and Investors,” the first installment of an EFI report series entitled “From Kilograms to Gigatons: Pathways for Hydrogen Market Formation in the United States.” The event will begin with remarks from 13th U.S. Secretary of Energy and EFI founder Ernest Moniz, followed by a look into the major findings of our new report from the EFI team. The event continues with a roundtable discussion with key New York stakeholders led by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA). The roundtable will discuss ongoing hydrogen activity, the opportunities and challenges ahead, and the next steps required to drive the industry forward to become a pillar of the low-carbon economy.

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 19 AT 8:30AM PACIFIC TIME. Join CaFCP members and Bill Elrick as they present on the national fuel cell and hydrogen overview, roadmap, mobility and the road ahead. https://www.h2-viewevents.com/conference/h2-view-virtual-north-american-hydrogen-summit/ North America has appeared conflicted in its green energy credentials in recent years. On the one hand, it is in prime position to lead efforts in decarbonisation; on the other, it is still actively reaping the economic reward of existing fossil fuel resources.

The landscape is rapidly shifting and the transition to renewable energies, and a world fuelled by green hydrogen in particular, is closer than we think. Yet for the US and wider North America, there is arguably still great distances to travel. The region has been giving chase in a race to green hydrogen dominated by Europe and Asia-Pacific.

The time is now for hydrogen in North America.

The region is perfectly placed to expand its global energy leadership at scale and speed, if policymakers and industry can work together and take the right steps to realise this vision.

What lessons can be learned from Europe’s policymakers? Where are the challenges to be overcome? Where are the strengths and opportunities? How can North America go from giving chase to taking a lead in hydrogen?

Join H2 View as we address these questions and the current state-of-play in North America’s hydrogen sector, across our four pillars of Mobility, Power, Policy and Technology, this October.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8 AT 9:00AM (PACIFIC). The 2022 Scoping Plan Update will assess progress towards achieving the Senate Bill 32 2030 target and lay out a path to achieve carbon neutrality no later than 2045. CARB will initiate development of modeled scenarios to illustrate outcomes that lead to carbon neutrality. Short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) are powerful climate forcers that have relatively short atmospheric lifetimes. These pollutants include the greenhouse gas (GHG) methane, hydrofluorocarbons (HFC), and anthropogenic black carbon. Because SLCP impacts are especially strong over the short term, acting now to reduce their emissions can have an immediate beneficial impact on climate change and public health. This workshop provides an opportunity for stakeholders to provide input on key questions related to future policies and technologies to reduce SLCPs along a pathway to carbon neutrality. The workshop will discuss methane emissions from oil and gas sources, landfills and organic waste, and dairy and livestock operations; HFC refrigerants; and anthropogenic black carbon.  This workshop will inform the 2022 Scoping Plan Update. Stakeholder input and feedback are encouraged.

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 26 - THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28 AT 10:00AM (EASTERN). The 2021 DOE Office of Electricity Energy Storage Program Annual Peer Review assembles researchers from across the DOE landscape to summarize the state of the art in energy storage research, development, and application. Technical topics will include Innovative Deployment Projects, Power Electronics, Grid Integration and Interoperability, Equity and Resilience, Policy, Safety and Reliability, Analytics, and Battery Chemistries and Technologies.

Daily keynotes and roundtables will address leading topics in energy storage.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 26, 2021 | 9:00AM (EASTERN). The Circular Carbon Economy project is a joint initiative between Columbia University’s Center on Global Energy Policy and the Global CCS Institute. The multi-year project explores options to reduce, reuse, recycle, and remove CO2 emissions from the global energy economy and global ecosystems. The goal is to provide decision makers (including policymakers, investors, and civil society) quantitative understanding of options that can accelerate global decarbonization, reduce risks, and create economic growth. Early work builds on new and existing scholarship to create opportunities and actions for a just and verdant energy transition.

In June, we shared the key findings from our new reports, “Blue Hydrogen: Production and Use,” and “Green Hydrogen in a Circular Carbon Economy: Opportunities and Limits.” The reports touch on production, transportation, and use of zero-carbon hydrogen (blue, green, and bio), how and where there are opportunities to catalytic early action and investment, and what’s needed to put the world on a useful path to maximizing the value of a critical carbon-free fuel.

The Center on Global Energy Policy and the Global CCS Institute will host a discussion that will bring together experts in technology, policy, and finance to address how hydrogen can rapidly provide commercial energy services across key sectors (power, transportation, industry, and buildings). The event will feature a keynote address and a short presentation by project co-leads, Dr. S. Julio Friedmann, Senior Research Scholar, Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia SIPA, and Alex Zapantis, General Manager - Commercial, Global CCS Institute, followed by a panel discussion.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 12 AT 11:00AM (EASTERN). More than 100 Countries and 200 companies around the world have pledged to achieve net zero carbon by 2050. Now we have to ask ourselves, how do we do it? There is more to the net zero challenge than just removing carbon from the power sector. We also need to consider how we can do it affordably and reliably. Join Mitsubishi Power to learn how it is applying advanced modeling to help determine the best path to lower system costs, reduce the amount of curtailment and effectively reduce carbon emissions in the west.

MONDAY, AUGUST 30 AT 3:00PM (PACIFIC). The California Hydrogen Business Council (CHBC) is hosting a two-hour workshop in conjunction with the ACT Expo in Long Beach on August 30, 2021. This workshop will cover hydrogen fuel cell electric trucks. As fleet operators in California and beyond begin to consider adopting zero-emission technologies in their fleets, careful consideration of capabilities and requirements is needed to determine if the technology is suited to application duty-cycles, location, and use. Fuel cell electric trucks are capable of performing the heavy workload of commercial and industrial fleets and offer similar operational logistics to diesel fleets with no tailpipe emissions other than water.  

The Hydrogen – It Really Does Work Today! Fuel Cell Truck Workshop at ACT Expo will present the real-world status of hydrogen fuel cell electric trucks to clean transportation stakeholders and fleet operators at ACT Expo. This workshop will cover:

• An overview of CARB’s Advanced Clean Truck (ACT) Ruling
• Top-level analysis of fuel cell electric trucks and comparison to diesel and battery electric
• Real-world perspectives on operation and maintenance from today’s fuel cell truck and bus operators
• Hydrogen refueling insights and cost projections
• An interactive panel discussion to hear viewpoints from the audience

Join the CHBC and expert industry presenters at ACT Expo to learn more about the hydrogen and fuel cell solution!
