The Board of KIVI Region North-West has the pleasure of inviting you to attend a lecture to be given by Dr Alice Elliott of Shell Netherlands.
Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe known to us and has long been an important raw material and heat source in petrochemicals. Of more recent date is the potential use of hydrogen as an energy carrier to power cars, buses, trains and even aircraft and heat the oldest buildings. So how do we produce hydrogen and how sustainable is it? What opportunities does hydrogen have in the market as an alternative to oil and gas and in competition with electricity from wind and solar? What is Shell's vision of hydrogen's role in the transition to climate-neutral and emission-free? And what are Shell's plans, particularly in the Netherlands?
