The Future of Hydrogen Investment: Why Energy Mix Matters

As the world moves towards decarbonization, businesses investing in hydrogen must consider more than just technology, they need a strategic energy mix. Gareth Gregory, North American Head at Energy Security Services North America, highlights why this holistic approach is essential for sustainable and cost-effective energy solutions.

Many businesses make the mistake of taking a single-technology approach when transitioning to hydrogen or on-site energy generation. This exposes them to excessive capital expenditures and potential reinvestment in just a few years. Gregory explains:

"If you do not model your energy mix correctly, you are taking a technology approach that gives you excessive exposure… you're probably going to be reinvesting in technology in the next three to seven years again."

Why This Matters
