The global transition to a low-carbon economy has positioned hydrogen as a critical energy carrier, with both blue and green hydrogen playing pivotal roles in achieving decarbonisation targets. However, scaling up hydrogen production and integrating it into global energy markets requires robust and sustainable business models that address economic viability, market demand, regulatory frameworks, and financing challenges.

This presentation will explore the key business models shaping the low-carbon hydrogen economy, examining how companies and investors can navigate market entry strategies, cost structures, and policy incentives. Leveraging insights from real-world market analyses and economic forecasting approaches, we will assess the competitiveness of hydrogen across different regions, identifying key drivers of cost reduction and price competitiveness.

Additionally, we will introduce an economic modeling tool that forecasts hydrogen production costs until 2050. This tool integrates factors such as power prices, infrastructure availability, and policy frameworks to provide stakeholders with detailed insights into the economic viability of hydrogen production over time. It will help industry leaders and investors make informed decisions by highlighting cost trends and price competitiveness in the evolving hydrogen market.

Attendees will gain a clear understanding of:
- The economic landscape and market dynamics of low-carbon hydrogen.
- Emerging business models and their implications for scaling hydrogen production.
- Key cost factors and price drivers influencing hydrogen investment decisions.
- Strategic considerations for policymakers, investors, and industry players.

This session will be particularly valuable for energy leaders, policymakers, investors, and industry stakeholders looking to develop commercially viable strategies for low-carbon hydrogen deployment. By addressing economic challenges and opportunities, this presentation aims to contribute to the ongoing discussion on accelerating hydrogen adoption and fostering a sustainable hydrogen economy.
