Clean hydrogen is at the centre of decarbonisation
Dr Javier Cavada, President and CEO, EMEA, Mitsubishi Power, unpacks the role of clean hydrogen in achieving net zero targets.

In an exclusive interview with Dr Javier Cavada, President and CEO, EMEA, Mitsubishi Power, he sheds light on the role of decarbonisation technologies necessary to achieve net zero targets.
These technologies include electricity powered by hydrogen, the low carbon fuel of the future that can enable the renewable-powered economies of the future to deliver net zero targets.
"We are already seeing solar power, and wind power, being deployed at massive scale. So the key technologies that now need to cope, and need to accelerate, and need to be deployed in big, big size, bigger speed, are technologies that enable more wind and more solar coming to the grid," says Cavada.
"So we are talking about energy storage, we are talking about backup solutions, and we're talking about technologies that provide sustainable, reliable, affordable, 24/7 renewables," he added.

This interview was filmed in November 2023 at Enlit Europe in Paris, France.
Cavada concludes: "So today, we have the technologies and we have the will for decarbonisation but we are all aware that what we do not do in the coming two years will impact the coming generations.
"The coming 24 months are going to be crucial for our future, so let's act urgently. Let's do it together."

Hydrogen: a new class of renewable energy
Hydrogen is increasingly recognised as a key enabler of the energy transition, both as a fuel to decarbonise heavy industry that cannot be simply electrified and as a storage medium for renewable energy. Another important application for hydrogen is its role in grid security, flexibility and stabilisation.

Are gas turbines the most important link between the past and future of energy generation?
While the world is declining its use of fossil fuels, it cannot and will not be able to stop using fossil fuels in the short term - that’s why there is a need to build resilient energy systems for power generation that can adapt from using fossil fuels to utilising clean energy.
