Hi there :) two events (Not Optional & ImpactFest), two startup landscapes and a new data tool for you this week.
💧 Hydrogen boom
The European Commission’s new hydrogen strategy from the European Green Deal forecasts hydrogen to satisfy 24% of Europe's energy demand by 2050 (we're currently at less than 1%).
According to National Grid UK, green hydrogen (created by electrolysis using renewables) “could be the solution to many of the hardest parts of the transition to net-zero” including shipping, heavy industry, and long-distance freight.
