"The reason why we put this event on is basically to provide a platform for the industry to come together from every corner of the world to try and drive forward and accelerate the hydrogen economy. You can see behind me, I hope today, how busy it is. I mean, people are flooding in from every corner of the world, truly from the world. You can see, I think, Canada, we have pavilions from many, many, many nations coming here to do business, to try and drive forward the production and the development of hydrogen on the planet."

"Trade issues and the whole discussion about tariffs, that is really a challenge not only for our industry but for the whole economy. And we have been always converting for open trade in every region of the world, and with the hydrogen technology, we see that we can create more resilience in our supply chains, in the use of raw materials and so on."

"Our aim is really to show the potential of hydrogen, to show that it works, to show that it can compete against petrol cars and that they're on the same, that you can do the same thing with hydrogen as you can do with petrol cars. So that's our main goal as well."

"If a government can either regulate to encourage the use of hydrogen or subsidize to try and bridge that financial gap in the short term, or do both, ideally, then that will accelerate the industry even further. And that is what's being discussed everywhere this week."

STORYLINE:
Packed halls for a summit on hydrogen.
This model from Hyundai shows what our cities could look like if powered entirely by the gas. Buses, cars and trains - a vision of the future.
Visitors from across the globe are here.
“The reason why we put this event on is basically to provide a platform for the industry to come together from every corner of the world to try and drive forward and accelerate the hydrogen economy," explains Jonathan Heastie, Portfolio Director for RX UK..
