The low-carbon hydrogen economy is encountering hurdles in meeting the pace required for its growth. To bridge the gap between supply and demand challenges, a market boost is crucial. Concerns linger around the discrepancy of capacity announcements versus the current small-scale demand. Factors like government policies, financial support, project execution, and meeting end market needs are pivotal areas for improvement. Understanding the market dynamics, prevailing conditions, and unique project drivers is essential to propel some projects to Financial Investment Decision (FID) while others face stagnation. These issues need resolution to upscale the low-carbon hydrogen sector and enable its significant contribution to the energy transition. Wood Mackenzie is organizing its Hydrogen Conference in London on 12-13 November 2025 to delve into these obstacles. The event will provide a platform for discussions with Wood Mackenzie's hydrogen research analysts and industry experts to dissect the primary drivers and challenges in deploying low-carbon hydrogen. Participants can leverage this opportunity to gain insights into the industry landscape and explore pathways for overcoming hurdles in advancing the hydrogen economy.
