EPRI in early May held a roundtable featuring subject-matter experts sharing best practices and insights on the vital role of meaningful community engagement in successfully deploying hydrogen projects economy-wide. In A Community Approach to Hydrogen Development, the discussion focused on analyzing the role of active community engagement in infrastructure development.

The growth of today's hydrogen ecosystem presents an opportunity for industry and communities to collaborate, and the panelists highlighted ways to move forward. The event also featured the release of an EPRI-Hydrogen Forward Factsheet on community engagement best practices.

Panelists included Third Way Senior Policy Advisor for Carbon Management Rudra Kapila, Cummins Director of Government Relations Traci Kraus, Energy Futures Initiative Senior VP of Research and Analysis Alex Kizer, U.S. DOE Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations Energy Justice Liaison Catherine Clarke, and moderator and EPRI Low-Carbon Resources R&D Director Jeffery Preece.
