3 round tables covering the 3 objectives

Hydrogen can be used as an energy carrier or as a molecule in industry.

Can the specific risks associated with hydrogen be a technical, economic, or societal barrier to its deployment?

This round table will provide an opportunity to explore:

– The technical and regulatory design frameworks that ensure safety.

– Several case studies illustrating risk management.

– The skills and training required, from designers to end users.

– Societal challenges related to the perception and understanding of risk.

Since the health crisis, the concept of sovereignty has become essential, further amplified by the conflict in Ukraine and a turbulent year for global trade in 2025. In this context, how should the hydrogen sector develop to balance increased volume, relevant solutions, and controlled sovereignty?

This round table will provide an opportunity:

– To discuss international initiatives and projects, and identify lessons for appropriate transposition in France
– To highlight the conditions for complementarity between domestic hydrogen production sources and import/export networks
– To detail initiatives aimed at reducing dependence on critical materials, imported technical solutions, and improving environmental impact
– To debate the relationship between production volume and the development of uses

While the hydrogen sector is going through a period of uncertainty, the decarbonization market remains both a necessity and an opportunity. How does hydrogen contribute to it?

This round table will provide an opportunity:

– To clarify the nature of hydrogen markets and their reality in 2025
– To assess which economic players are positioned to meet these market needs
– To look ahead to the medium term and examine whether new markets are emerging
