The potential of hydrogen as a clean future fuel is a familiar talking point, but what’s the reality? Ocean Hyway Cluster, a specialist Norwegian trade body, gathers leading players to assess, demystify and enable developments within the maritime field, at The Maritime Hydrogen Conference.
This unique conference is split into three main sessions, in order to help navigate hydrogen’s horizon. As such, partnership-based models, infrastructure (from both a shipowner and energy supplier perspective), and an analysis of internal combustion engines versus fuel cells will be the central focal points at the conference.
