Zero-Emission Propulsion Technologies: The Role of Hydrogen

Hydrogen is emerging as a key enabler in the transition toward zero-emission mobility, offering a viable solution for sectors where full electrification presents operational or scalability challenges. This session will explore the latest advances in hydrogen propulsion technologies, including fuel cell systems, hydrogen combustion engines, and the development of supporting infrastructure. Industry leaders and technology experts will discuss real-world applications across automotive, aviation, maritime, and heavy transport, as well as the strategic role of hydrogen in achieving climate neutrality targets. The conversation will also address current barriers to adoption, including cost, infrastructure deployment, regulatory frameworks, and supply chain readiness, while highlighting the opportunities hydrogen presents to accelerate the decarbonisation of global transport systems.
