ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSION: HYDROGEN 

October’s member meeting included a roundtable discussion on opportunities in Hydrogen and the consensus is that in all markets from trucking and marine to cars and aviation, the biggest problem to solve is capitalizing green hydrogen generation, distribution, & logistics to beat the chicken and egg problem. While lots of use cases and concepts are being proven, it's going to take focused intervention to make it reach scale, and EU, Japan, and Korea were cited as deployment hot spots. Startups working on Generation, HydrogenStorage, FuelCells, Aviation, and NatGas were shared.
