TCE Rotterdam: Circular H2 from day one: how to build a supply chain that doesn't exist yet

Free to attend, with an optional €10 contribution to support the chapter when you register. Registration needs approval so we can give the venue final numbers.

The Circular Economists Rotterdam meets at the Van Nelle Fabriek. The theme is how to build a circular supply chain from day one, with hydrogen and its infrastructure as the case.

In 2025 the CIRCO Elektrolysers track brought companies building electrolysers to one table with the people who would one day have to recycle them, and it produced the first electrolyser routekaart. The next step on that routekaart hasn't been taken yet. On this afternoon we pick it up again.
