Exploring hydrogen market trends webinar
Join SETsqaured for an informative webinar exploring some of the core market trends in the hydrogen sector.
The demand for hydrogen in the UK has been increasing significantly over the past few years, and this trend is only expected to continue. For those in the UK, it is anticipated that 250-460 TWh of hydrogen may be needed by 2050. This is driven by various factors, including the government’s commitment to reach net-zero emissions by 2050 and the increasing adoption of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. As a result, the opportunity within hydrogen and sustainable transport technologies is huge, and the market size for hydrogen in the United Kingdom is expected to witness considerable growth. Similarly, the forecasted increase of investment in hydrogen infrastructure and the development of new production technologies is expected to boost market growth both domestically and internationally.
Led by Hydrogen & Sustainable Transport Economy Accelerator Sector Manager, Dr Yuchen Gu at SETsqaured, this one-hour session will dive into the key market trends you need to be aware of in the Hydrogen space.
Joining us will be Gillian Montanaro from Innovate UK Business Growth, who will be speaking about the Global Business Innovation Programme. She will be highlighting the support available from the Edge Team for start-ups and SMEs exploring global markets associated with hydrogen and sustainable transport, and, their adjacent sectors.
Also speaking will be Stuart McKnight, Founder and CEO of Suiso, a start-up hydrogen company. Stuart will discuss Susio’s business journey so far, introducing their novel hydrogen technology, as well as how they pioneer various markets around the world.
A follow-on panel discussion, featuring Abdul Chowdhury, will explore some of the opportunities within the hydrogen space right now, and the trends we’re expecting to see over the next five to ten years.
SETsqaured is a unqiue enterprise partnership and a dynamic collaboration between six leading research-led UK universities of Bath, Bristol Cardiff, Exeter, Southamption and Surrey. They provide a wide range of highly acclaimed support programmes to help turn ideas into thriving businesses.

The UK government has identified the value of developing a hydrogen economy to support the drive to Net Zero which has seen a surge in regional interest with the development of Hydrogen South West, Western Gateway’s hydrogen mapping and additional investments from WECA.
In order to build on this government initiative, UoB are keen to form relationships between academia and industry partners so that we can combine our efforts to create solutions together. These free seminars will be both a learning and networking opportunity, with a chance to hear about the current research at The University and in industry, as well as meet with academics and other partners. To initiate collaborative projects in this area we have secured some funding that can support several small scale projects. Initial conversations about the availability of these funds can be had at the events, and there will be a light touch application process to follow. This money could be used for people exchange, consultancy and travelling.

Hydrogen Supply Chain Collaborative R&D Competition Briefing webinar
Innovate UK, in collaboration with Innovate UK KTN, will be hosting an online competition briefing webinar on the 16th February 2023 to share details of the new funding competition “Hydrogen storage and distribution supply chain Collaborative R&D”
Low carbon hydrogen has an important role to play in the UK’s move towards net zero carbon. The UK Government continues to support the scale up of hydrogen production through the Net Zero Hydrogen Fund and Hydrogen Business Models but in order to exploit the opportunity of 10GW hydrogen production by 2030 we need strong supply chains.
The hydrogen storage and distribution supply chain fund will,
Provide a mechanism which incentivises collaboration across the hydrogen value chain, with particular emphasis in storage and distribution of hydrogen
Develop integrated storage and distribution systems
Reduce the associated cost of hydrogen supply chains related to the storage and distribution of hydrogen.
Encourage the commercialization and adoption of hydrogen storage and distribution innovation
Innovation within different parts of hydrogen storage and distribution supply chain include but is not limited to:
Pipeline and vessels
On-vehicle transport
Storage tanks and surface infrastructure
Monitoring and system controls such as meters, sensors and valves
Refuelling and blending
The briefing webinar will include an opportunity to:
Hear about the scope of the competition in more detail and how to apply
Learn about the eligibility criteria
Hear about the support services available for businesses applying into the fund
