Workshop

A target model for hydrogen

24 January 2025

FSR Regulatory Policy Workshop Series 2024-2025

The Workshop will consider whether a target model for hydrogen could be defined, which could serve as a reference for the development of the hydrogen market and the related infrastructure requirements.

For this purpose, the Workshop will be structured in three sessions:

Session I, in the morning, will focus on the prospects for hydrogen demand and supply, the cost competitiveness of renewable and low-carbon hydrogen and the role that it can play in decarbonising energy demand;
Session II, also in the morning, will explore which market design and trading arrangements are best suited to support the development of the hydrogen sector, as resulting from the previous session;
Session III, in the afternoon, will look at the implications of the development of demand and supply and the market design and trading arrangements outlined in the previous sessions, for the development of the hydrogen network.

This workshop is by invitation only.

Sustainability assessment

The FSR assesses the sustainability and carbon footprint of all its Workshops of the Regulatory Policy Workshop Series. This Workshop is run mainly ‘in presence’, with some exceptions for participation through internet-based remote connection. It is expected that most participants will join the Workshop in Florence to take advantage of the opportunity for more effective interaction and discussion. Those participants joining the event in Florence will be encouraged to offset any carbon emissions related to their air travel. It is considered that, in this way, a suitable balance is achieved between the effectiveness of the policy dialogue and the net carbon footprint of the event.
