Hydrogen in Appalachia: Opportunities, Challenges, and Federal Investments

April 24 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

The Indiana Wildlife Federation invites you to  join the National Wildlife Federation and a panel of experts on April 24 from 2-3 p.m. ET for an educational webinar: Hydrogen in Appalachia: Opportunities, Challenges, and Federal Investments . While Indiana does not fall into Appalachia, many of the struggles  are shared between the Appalachian region and the Hoosier state, come learn about the risks and rewards of hydrogen production!

Hydrogen’s ability to store and produce energy without harmful byproducts has made it a prime focus for future use in electricity generation, transportation, and other hard-to-decarbonize sectors. However, scaling up the use of hydrogen comes with numerous challenges, risks, and considerations. Join to learn more about hydrogen as a potential clean energy solution and recent federal investments in hydrogen – including what we know about plans for a hydrogen hub in Appalachia.

Our panelists:

  • Dr. Simone Stewart, Senior Industrial Policy Specialist, National Wildlife Federation
  • Sarah Spence, Midwest Regional Director, Conservative Energy Network
  • Rob Altenburg, Senior Director for Energy and Climate, PennFuture
  • Sean O’Leary, Senior Researcher, Energy and Petrochemicals, Ohio River Valley Institute
