An enlightening conversation with HTEC 's Sabina Russell, P.Eng. and Colin Armstrong in the second episode of our CHFCA Member Q&A series
The CHFCA sits down with Ballard Power Systems' Kim Leach in this first episode of our CHFCA Member Q&A series
In Edmonton, Alberta, hydrogen is becoming a critical component of the energy mix A key element of Canada’s effort to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, hydrogen is a clean, innovative source of energy with the potential to make a huge global impact. In Canada’s energy heartland of Edmonton, Alberta, numerous ongoing projects are making the region a good example of how hydrogen can fuel a positive, cleaner energy future.

In Canada’s energy heartland of Edmonton, Alberta, numerous ongoing projects are making the region a good example of how hydrogen can fuel a positive, cleaner energy future.
Establishing a transformative, clean hydrogen economy represents a once in a generation opportunity for investors in low-cost, emissions-free energy As the world looks to reach net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, clean hydrogen has the potential to accelerate innovation and transform energy generation as we know it by making green power available on an industrial scale.
Canada is one of the world’s largest hydrogen producers and a top destination for hydrogen-related investment Demand for safe, clean and reliable energy sources such as hydrogen is surging as the world transitions to a low-carbon economy. Used across a range of industries, hydrogen is the only fuel that has the potential to completely decarbonise every part of the economy. Canada is one of the world’s largest hydrogen producers and a top destination for hydrogen-related investment, attracting more than CAD$67bn in FDI in the last five years. Here are six reasons why you, too, should invest in Canada’s hydrogen industry.
Hydrogen fuel cell technology is driving forward a zero-emissions future and Canada is at the vanguard of this revolution. Companies such as cellcentric - a joint venture between Daimler Truck AG and the Volvo Group - and Ballard Power Systems are part of dedicated technology clusters working on the next generation of hydrogen fuel cell research and development.
Today, Canadian hydrogen and fuel cell technology are helping to power over 1,200 fuel cell electric buses and reduce vehicle emissions in Europe, Brazil, China, and the United States.
To transition towards net-zero carbon neutrality by 2050, Canadian cities must adopt zero-emission vehicles such as FCEBs in their urban transit fleets. For transit agencies, FCEBs are a proven zero-emission solution that offer the same performance as conventional diesel buses and are well-suited for long routes and colder weather with higher power requirements that Canadian transit agencies service.
Why are hydrogen and fuel cell technologies indispensable for climate plans? What are their roles in heavy-duty transport? And how should governments support their growth? The Canadian Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association (CHFCA) interviewed eleven experts from across the hydrogen and fuel cell sector to answer these questions, and more. Hear from exclusive clips from industry leaders at Ballard, Plug Power, Nikola Motors, Cummins, Toyota, Hyundai, Generate Capital, and others.
Hydrogen is already a powerful element for free-emission energy, but fuel cell technology is set to unleash its massive potential for a sustainable future. Globally, hydrogen and fuel cell products are already moving towards commercialization. The Canadian sector is a global leader as a result of pioneering technologies, world-renown expertise, and a 25-year history of partnerships between industry, academia and Canadian governments. The CHFCA is playing a key role in this leadership.
