Webinar | Renewable Hydrogen and the Future of California’s Power Sector – Delivering Affordable, Clean, Firm Dispatchable Power for an Electrified Economy
California’s electrification and clean energy goals are rapidly increasing electricity demand while simultaneously tightening constraints on fossil generation. Achieving a reliable, decarbonized grid will require affordable, clean, firm, dispatchable power capable of supporting electric vehicle charging, building electrification, industrial loads, and growing regional peak demand.
Renewable hydrogen–fueled turbines are emerging as a potential solution to provide on-demand power that leverages existing infrastructure to complement solar, wind, and long-duration storage. With the first utility-scale hydrogen-capable power plants and hydrogen production facilities moving from planning to operation, policymakers and ratepayer advocates are assessing renewable hydrogen’s role, value, and impacts in real time.
Join us for a high-level panel discussion with leaders who have directly shaped the deployment of renewable hydrogen projects:
Speakers:
