SPE Live Podcast: Hydrogen in Action. Today’s Use Cases and What We Might See by 2050

Hydrogen is no longer just a future promise — it’s already being deployed in real-world projects today. In this SPE Live, we will highlight key current applications of hydrogen and ammonia, particularly in industry, shipping, and power. We will then explore what is realistically expected by 2050, based on project trends, policy shifts, and market developments. The conversation will also touch on the importance of policy support, full life-cycle emissions tracking, and the evolving global trade in low-carbon hydrogen derivatives like ammonia and e-fuels. As the value chain evolves, a parallel effort is urgently needed to build the future workforce — equipping today’s professionals and preparing new talent with the right technical and commercial skills to support and scale low-carbon hydrogen solutions. The goal is to give participants a clear, grounded view of where we are now — and where we could go next.
