Planning a hydrogen project? Don’t miss the “Hydrogen Risk Mitigation Strategy” session at #HydrogenEastHalifax2025. This session explores how to manage the complex risks that come with hydrogen — from technology and finance to contracts and insurance. Brad Vescarelli of Marsh Canada Limited will kick things off with an overview of risk transfer strategies and how they can support safer, more bankable projects. Then, Mike Strobel of Aspen Technology will share a real-world case study highlighting how systems-level risk analysis helped de-risk a major hydrogen project in the Global South. Moderated by Jean Paquin of Schneider Electric, this session wraps with a joint audience Q&A — a great chance to ask questions and learn from leaders shaping the future of hydrogen. 🔗 Register now: https://lnkd.in/gkJi4a_K Canadian Hydrogen Association (CHA), Fuel Cell & Hydrogen Energy Association (FCHEA), Atlantica Centre for Energy, Atlantic Hydrogen Alliance, Net Zero Atlantic, Enbridge Gas, Hydrogen Ontario, Northland Power Inc., CHARBONE hydrogen TSXV:CH OTCQB:CHHYF, Next Hydrogen, Siemens Energy, Energy Council of Canada, Air Products, Air Liquide, Dow, Atura Power, Ontario Power Generation, Ontario Clean Technology Industry Association, Hydrogen Optimized, Ontario Government | Gouvernement de l’Ontario, Government of Newfoundland and Labrador, Government of Nova Scotia

On this week's episode of the Atlantic Canada's Hydrogen Journey podcast Derek Estabrook talked to Trent Vichie, CEO and Founder of EverWind Fuels and Lukas Schuffelen, a Partner at BET Consulting GmbH about Atlantic Canada's green hydrogen export opportunity. Demand for green hydrogen in Western Europe is growing and several large green hydrogen projects have been proposed across Atlantic Canada - projects that could turn the region into a global leader in green energy. But potential doesn’t guarantee success. For green hydrogen to take off, the economics have to work - for hydrogen producers in Atlantic Canada...and for buyers in Europe. Infrastructure, investment, regulations, policies, and customer commitments all need to align before the first green hydrogen shipment leaves our region.
