The Hydrogen for Development (H4D) initiative, led by the World Bank under ESMAP, supports the development of clean hydrogen in emerging economies through a set of dedicated work streams. The Stakeholders’ Forum connects the work of H4D with real project development, by testing ideas with developers and financiers and identifying what is needed to move projects forward. The forum focuses on moving from strategies and pilot projects to investments and implementation.

This session will focus on one of the key challenges in scaling hydrogen: electrolyser deployment. Building on recent World Bank work, the discussion will look at how costs can be reduced, how manufacturing can scale, and how electrolysers can be integrated into projects in developing countries.
