To this end, we organised a half-day virtual workshop on September 6, 2022. 13 representatives from academia, business, public administration and civil society think tanks discussed acceptance issues around a future hydrogen economy. In preparation for the workshop, we provided the participants with a thesis paper, which we then updated on the basis of the workshop discussions.
The workshop was part of the H2-Compass stakeholder dialogue
We organised a total of four workshops, with the first one on import criteria held in April 2022. The second workshop in June 2022 focused on political levers and measures suitable for supporting business models based on domestic hydrogen production. The third workshop, also held in June 2022, was dedicated to the prioritisation of hydrogen applications. The fourth workshop on perception and expectation management in September 2022 concluded the series.
With our workshop series, we continued the stakeholder dialogue initiated in the fall of 2021 with our survey 'Goals and Paths to the Hydrogen Economy 2030/2050'. Around 600 experts from academia, business, civil society and public administration took part in the survey. In October 2022, we organised a major stakeholder conference in order to further reflect on the workshop results.
