Clean energy technology – is this the critical moment for a mass rollout of hydrogen fuel cells for energy generation and storage?
The race is on to achieve net zero by 2050 – understanding the technology which will help get us there is vital. Watch back to hear our panellists answer these questions and more in a hybrid panel discussion. Our panellists shared their predictions about the impact of clean energy technology on people and the planet and answered questions from our in-person and online audiences.
If you have any questions, please contact Patrick Woodcock, MacRobert Award and Project Manager - Enterprise, at the Royal Academy of Engineering.
