Committing to Policy Action for
California’s Decarbonization and Air Quality Goals
The California Hydrogen Leadership Summit explores the policies, programs and incentives needed to accelerate production, use, and storage of hydrogen, which is essential to California’s ability to meet emissions goals and address climate protection, air quality, energy resilience and sustainable economic growth needs.
Leaders from the energy sector, transportation industry, academia and California state government, including legislative and administrative staff responsible for implementing policies come together to address climate change, air quality, energy diversity and conservation.
- Why hydrogen is critical in the fight against climate change
- How renewable hydrogen can serve as a critical pillar of the state’s environmental and economic development strategy
- Policies that will accelerate production and use of renewable hydrogen and decrease cost
- How hydrogen addresses reliability and resilience concerns across California’s power systems
- Harnessing hydrogen hubs for “hard to decarbonize” industrial clusters
- How fuel cell electric vehicles can help the state meets its zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) goals and decarbonize the transportation sector
- What hydrogen infrastructure is needed to support California’s ZEV sector
- Hydrogen’s benefits for environmental justice and disadvantaged communities
