🇨🇦 Canada's hydrogen industry is set to power the future From coast to coast, momentum is building fast as Canada positions itself as a key player in global hydrogen production. Last week, Denmark's Ambassador to Canada, Nikolaj Harris, joined our energy advisors Christian and Sif for a webinar exploring potential synergies between Denmark and Canada in the hydrogen space, sharing insights into the latest developments in Canada. Highlights from the webinar include: 👉 80+ hydrogen projects are in the pipeline, worth over $100bn CAD 👉 More than $29bn CAD backs the industry in federal funding and tax credits 👉 Canada has engaged in strategic hydrogen partnerships signed with the EU, Germany, Japan, South Korea, and many others 👉 In particular, Atlantic Canada is gaining attention as a future hydrogen hub. This is powered by strong wind resources, deep-water ports with access to global markets, and legislative support for production, export, and blending. Companies such as EverWind, World Energy GH2, Simply Blue Group, and Danish Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners are already advancing large-scale projects in the region, creating massive potential for Danish companies across PtX, electrolysis, infrastructure, and system integration to share their solutions and knowledge. 👏 We want to thank Atlantic Hydrogen Alliance, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), and our Future Energies Alliance members for participating in this week's webinar.
