The growth of the hydrogen economy depends not only on technology, but also on financing, infrastructure, industrial demand, and long-term market certainty. This session will discuss business models for renewable hydrogen in solar-rich regions, focusing on hydrogen hubs, offtake agreements, project bankability, export opportunities, and domestic market creation. The discussion will also address industrial decarbonization and the role of hydrogen in emerging global value chains. 

As renewable energy generation expands globally, energy systems increasingly require flexibility, grid integration, and long-duration storage solutions. This session will explore how solar PV, battery storage, and renewable hydrogen can be integrated to create reliable and scalable energy systems. Topics include hybrid renewable plants, electrolyzer integration, grid balancing, hydrogen as long-duration storage and international case studies showcasing practical approaches to renewable system integration.
