Central to this discussion is the impact of Covid-19 on the energy sector and the prospects for an accelerated energy transition. Hydrogen is a promising solution in the energy transition and currently enjoys unprecedented political and business momentum. Jorgo Chatzimarkakis, Secretary General at Hydrogen Europe, will shed his light on the role of hydrogen as an enabler in the EU’s future energy system.

Questions that will be addressed during this webinar:

• How can the EU ensure supply of affordable and low-carbon energy?
