Washington & Jefferson College Hosts Oct. 4 Harnessing Hydrogen: Exploring Local & Regional Opportunities In Appalachia

The Washington & Jefferson College
Center for Energy Policy & Management will host an in-person program October 4 on Harnessing Hydrogen: Exploring Local & Regional Opportunities in Appalachia from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the College in Washington, PA.

While hydrogen energy and carbon capture utilization/storage present a tremendous opportunity for the tri-state region, the path forward is unclear. 

Several economic, regulatory, and technological challenges to development and deployment exist. 

Furthermore, local and regional governmental bodies lack a knowledge base to assess the costs and benefits of the burgeoning industry. 

The event will feature several talks by thought-leaders and professionals who are at the forefront of the hydrogen and carbon capture discussion, three panel discussions, and two break-out group sessions centered around the following subjects:

-- Panel 1: Fundamentals of Hydrogen Energy and Carbon Capture,

-- Panel 2: Challenges, Opportunities, and Barriers to Entry,

-- Panel 3: Governance Issues and the Regulatory Landscape,

-- Breakout Group 1: Discussion on local and regional governmental bodies' roles in hydrogen development, and

-- Breakout Group 2: Discussion on industry affairs, finance, and technological deployment of hydrogen energy

To RSVP for this event, please email Max Clark at mclark@washjeff.edu.
