A financing roadmap to build the green hydrogen economy
About the event
Countries are being asked to come forward with ambitious 2030 emissions reductions targets that align with reaching net zero by the middle of the century. To deliver on these stretching targets, countries will need to accelerate the phase-out of coal and encourage investment in renewables, amongst other measures. The development of a green hydrogen economy will be crucial to achieve those targets, especially in hard to abate sectors.
Green financing will play a crucial role by increasing the level of financial flows from the public and private sectors to the emerging green hydrogen industry. The side-event will bring together high-level public authorities in a challenging and open dialogue, and an international exchange of best practices mainly from the financing perspective.
