Ukrainian Hydrogen Council and UBTA will work together to develop hydrogen energy

Renewable energy, in particular the production and use of hydrogen as an energy carrier, is one of the priority areas of world energy development. Ukraine has all the necessary prerequisites for the rapid development of this sphere.

An important component of the effective development of hydrogen energy is the joint efforts of different parties. Yesterday the President of the Energy Association “Ukrainian Hydrogen Council” Oleksandr Riepkin and the Chairman of the Board of the Ukrainian Business and Trade Association (UBTA) Dmytro Los have signed a Memorandum.

“The hydrogen industry is in a period of transition in human consciousness: just as oil was once discovered and used, candles were replaced in homes with light bulbs, or switched from horses to cars, so is the transition from mineral resources consumption to renewable energy. Hydrogen is a logical continuation of the theme of "green" energy”, noted Oleksandr Riepkin.

“One of the main topics of our cooperation with the Ukrainian Hydrogen Council is participation in the development of the national hydrogen strategy of Ukraine, as well as comprehensive assistance in promoting the state's potential in the field of renewable and hydrogen energy. Such initiatives in the near future will show not only the Ukrainian but also the world community the power of the country and its capabilities”, said Dmytro Los.
