SUMMARY:Australia-Germany Hydrogen and Energy Forum
DESCRIPTION:Australia–German Hydrogen and Energy Forum: Research and industry hand in hand sends a strong signal for international cooperation in the field of hydrogen and sustainable energy. The forum brings together stakeholders from research\, industry and politics in Australia\, Germany and Saxony to tap into joint innovation potential\, promote technology transfer and develop new partnerships along sustainable energy and value chains. \nThe governments of Australia and of the Federal Republic of Germany share the common goal of reducing their dependence on fossil fuels and decarbonising their economies. Both countries are committed to developing a national green hydrogen economy. The joint long-term goal is to make green hydrogen economically viable. Australia and Germany therefore support the establishment of a global green hydrogen economy. This opens up a wide range of opportunities for German companies to build up business with partners from Australia\, for example in the field of component manufacturing for fuel cells and electrolysers\, Battery technologies\, in plant engineering and in the production\, transport and storage of green hydrogen.
