Hyvolution 2023, the green hydrogen fair, will be held for the first time in Chile from June 28-30 at the Metropolitan Santiago convention center. In its first version, the Minister of Energy, Diego Pardow, will head the exhibition as Honorary President. The exhibition will connect the value chain of the entire region, starting with the generation and ending with the export of Green Hydrogen, through storage, transportation, logistics, financing, suppliers, uses, among others. Hyvolution Chile will be the commercial meeting point for 4,000 executives and decision makers of the participating companies, exhibitors and visitors, who in 3 days of activity will be able to participate in the exhibition areas, international congress and commercial networking areas. Rodrigo Valenzuela, Manager of Hyvolution Chile, pointed out that “our country has a great and unique potential at a global level to produce H2V at a reduced cost, being among the cheapest in the world. In addition to this, there is a great interest from international companies that are looking to generate business not only with our country, but also with local suppliers, so the time for green hydrogen is now. In this line, Hyvolution Chile aims to become the commercial platform that will commercially connect Europe and Latin America in the world of green hydrogen, being today Chile the meeting point”. The event organized by FISA, in collaboration with the Chilean Hydrogen Association (H2 Chile), will present, in parallel to the fair, a congress in which more than 40 speakers from the public and private sector, being referents of the industry, will address in conferences and lectures the most relevant issues for the sector, discussing for example: the strategies required to achieve an energy transition that allows a proper balance between productive development and environmental care. Hyvolution will also address topics on financing methods, communities, human capital, alternatives and different uses of green hydrogen, investment in the sector, among others. Green hydrogen in Chile is in the process of generating a competitive industry in international export markets, which would boost investment and position the country as one of the leaders in the sector worldwide due to its territorial characteristics, infrastructure and renewable potential. Hyvolution Chile presents the ideal scenario to analyze this new industry and the possibilities that exist for the creation of dynamic economic ecosystems throughout the country. Congress In parallel to Hyvolution will be held the International Congress that will cover the most important topics related to hydrogen and its value chain in Chile and the world. The three thematic axes, divided in 3 days, will be: “Governmental policies day”, “Business initiatives day” and “Hydrogen value chain”. On Wednesday 28, after the inauguration, the “Governmental Policies Day” will take place, which will have 3 modules: the first will be led by Minister Pardow in which he will refer to the “National green hydrogen strategy: Chile and its territories”. The next module will address “Permitting and regulation in green hydrogen” and “Shared infrastructure”. In these panels will be presented the matters in which the State is working for the production of green hydrogen in the country. On June 29, “Business initiatives day”, will be formed by: “Green hydrogen in Chile: reality and challenges”; “New uses and applications of green hydrogen in mining, aquaculture, logistics and other industries”; “Business challenges of green hydrogen: electrolyzers and water uses”; “The Chile-Europe hydrogen value chain after the 2023 EU delegated acts: is Chile ready”; “Green hydrogen: Latin American, European and rest of the world reality”. These seminars are related to the challenges that the country currently faces and the opportunities of the industry for its optimal development in the future.
