With hydrogen, the energy transition is accelerating
Hydrogen... everyone is talking about it, and for a good reason! Reducing CO2 emissions from industry, developing clean transportation, limiting the use of fossil fuels: hydrogen ticks many boxes. It's simple, its potential is immense for the coming decades. With hydrogen, the energy transition is really accelerating.

Génération Hydrogène
Climate emergency, energy mix, clean mobility, industrial renewal, energy sovereignty... These are some of the major challenges we are facing today and to which hydrogen provides, in one way or another, all or part of the solution.
To learn more about this molecule and the challenges of its use, Air Liquide invites you to Génération Hydrogène.

Joining forces around hydrogen
Developed on an industrial scale, this molecule will not only help respond to the climate emergency but also to the needs of populations and businesses. Air Liquide's mastery of hydrogen is decisive. But this mastery alone is not enough. Faced with environmental challenges, Air Liquide wants to move forward hand in hand with all the stakeholders of the hydrogen industry, without any blinkers and with pragmatism.

“The future is being shaped by hydrogen in particular, that has become a crucial enabler of a successful energy transition. And this success will undoubtedly be collective.

Driving forward hydrogen mobility for road, water and air

“Thanks to hydrogen, we are taking up the challenge of clean mobility and thus making a concrete contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions in one of the most emitting sectors.

Vice President, Hydrogen Energy business line
Fostering clean production, the challenge of the decade
Heavy industry, transportation, but also electronics, chemical and glass industries…Low-carbon hydrogen and renewable hydrogen will play an increasingly important role in more and more human and economic activities. Today though, the main challenge is clean hydrogen production.
Federating energies around hydrogen
Skills are crossed, or better still, they merge. Faurecia and Siemens, among other major global players, are our technological partners. Airbus, ADP and VINCI Airports are our partners in various projects to invent the airports and aircraft of tomorrow. On the road, we operate with a number of companies such as Lotte Chemicals, First Element or via our joint venture "HysetCo" with Toyota and TotalEnergies in particular. The list is long but inspiring, and yes, that is our passion.

Hydrogen Council, at the heart of a global dynamic
Observers will note the impressive development of the Hydrogen Council: 13 industry leaders instantly joined this global initiative in 2017. It now comprises some 120 industrial groups.

Air Liquide, major partner of Energy Observer
Energy Observer and Air Liquide have been working together since the launch of an incredible odyssey, that of the Energy Observer, the first hydrogen laboratory vessel to travel the world to demonstrate the key role of hydrogen in the energy transition.

The world’s largest clean hydrogen infrastructure fund
Air Liquide, TotalEnergies, VINCI and several international companies are launching the world's largest fund dedicated to low-carbon hydrogen infrastructure.
See hydrogen differently

If you want to understand to what extent the ecological transition goes along with hydrogen, and become familiar with certain technical and scientific aspects, if you are keen on discovering the latest international innovations, or if you simply want to debate and exchange ideas, in short, if you think that hydrogen is changing the game, then cH2ange with hydrogen is for you.
