The Swiss Energy Law Association is pleased to invite you to its next SELA Energy Lunch, dedicated to recent developments in hydrogen law and policy in the European Union and Switzerland.
Hydrogen is becoming one of the key regulatory questions of the energy transition. Beyond infrastructure and technology, its development raises increasingly concrete legal issues, including market design, certification, cross-border trade, sustainability criteria, security of supply, and the comparative assessment of EU and Swiss regulatory choices.
The event will take place online and will offer an opportunity to discuss these developments with two leading experts in the field.
