The Sustainable Energy Council (SEC) are pleased to announce the finalists for the World Hydrogen 2022 Awards, sponsored by Shell, comprised of 30 extraordinary projects, companies and individuals who are transforming the hydrogen industry.
The winners will be announced on 9th May 2022 at a ceremony at the Rotterdam Ahoy, as part of the World Hydrogen 2022 Summit & Exhibition, organised by Sustainable Energy Council in partnership with the Province of Zuid Holland, the City of Rotterdam and the Port of Rotterdam.
The 6 awards categories celebrate the exceptional achievements from companies and individuals who are driving the hydrogen industry forward. Through innovation, partnerships and commercial advances, these finalists are enabling the scalability needed to make hydrogen commercially viable and readily available to decarbonise even the most polluting sectors of our global economy.
The awards judging panel was made up of the SEC Hydrogen Advisory Board, who carefully reviewed and voted on each of the nominees based on this year’s awards criteria.
