MONDAY, MAY 24 AT 12:00PM (EASTERN). Please join the Clean Hydrogen Future Coalition (CHFC) on Monday, May 24 from 12:00 – 1:00 pm EST for a virtual briefing: Hydrogen 101: The Role of Hydrogen Technologies in Reaching Net-Zero Emissions. Our featured speakers will provide an overview of the Biden Administration’s support for the role of hydrogen technologies to address climate change and preserve and create high-wage jobs. Speakers will discuss clean hydrogen production, end uses, and the labor benefits of clean hydrogen.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 12 FROM 9:00AM PT. A reliable and affordable energy system is essential to the operation of nearly every function of the economy. One of the biggest challenges facing grid operators is to find cost effective ways to balance renewable energy production with demand. While batteries provide some flexibility, the ability to store large quantities of low-cost energy over long periods of time is essential to fill seasonal gaps and to address the prevalence of renewable energy droughts.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 19 FROM 2:00PM - 4:00PM ET. (Part of the CGAConnect 2021 family of online events)

Moderators:

Rich Craig – Vice President, Technical and Regulatory Affairs, CGA
