The German-Danish Green Hydrogen Summit
Green Power Denmark and Danish Industry welcome you to a high level summit in Copenhagen to discuss the development of a green hydrogen market and infrastructure.
The European focus on green hydrogen as an important energy carrier in the energy transition is the basis for an intensified cooperation between Germany and Denmark. In March 2023, the two countries signed an agreement to support the development and implementation of hydrogen infrastructure projects and proposed a plan to establish a land-based hydrogen pipeline by 2028. To reach and implement this ambition, strong political and industrial leadership is needed now to establish the necessary supply and demand, as well as scaling the technologies for hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives.
