The topics
Time for Concrete Answers.
On Hyvolution Paris 2026, the major challenges of the hydrogen sector come to life through strategic discussions, concrete feedback, and bold perspectives.
Industry leaders, policymakers, investors, regional authorities — every voice matters in moving solutions forward.
Six main tracks structure this editorial framework. They address the real questions facing stakeholders in the sector — with clarity, commitment, and high standards.
H₂ Production & Derivatives
Produce more. Produce better. Produce at the right price.
Low-carbon hydrogen is becoming a reality, but in what form? Where, how, at what cost, and with what impact? This theme explores technological choices, location strategies, and business models put to the test. It also examines the promise of natural hydrogen and the potential of ammonia, methanol, or LOHCs.
A space to confront industrial ambition, energy efficiency, and large-scale deployment.
Carbon Capture & Utilization
Decarbonize — but what about the carbon itself?
Here, the focus is on capture, storage, and utilization — but above all, on practical uses, viable models, and links with mobility, industry, and fuels. This theme sheds light on technology choices, storage sites, cost control, and success factors.
It opens the debate on the emergence of a true circular carbon market, at the crossroads of regulation, innovation, and territorial efficiency.
Mobility
H₂: Promise or reality for transportation?
This theme deciphers the fast-evolving uses of hydrogen in mobility: heavy-duty vehicles, maritime, aviation, light fleets. Where do we stand? What works? Who’s investing? What infrastructures, standards, and incentives are in place?
It gives a voice to those deploying, believing, and experimenting — to build credible pathways to large-scale adoption.
Industry & Services
Hydrogen: the new fuel for industrial value chains?
This theme analyzes existing and emerging industrial uses: steel, chemicals, heat, multi-purpose production... But it also addresses market conditions: volumes, pricing, competitiveness, public support.
A dialogue space for producers, off-takers, financiers, and regulators to bring projects to life — quickly and effectively.
Heavy Infrastructure
No hydrogen without infrastructure.
Transport, storage, ports, networks… This theme highlights the barriers and levers for large-scale deployment. What's holding things back? How can we accelerate? Who’s financing? And why are these infrastructures also strategic for overall energy system management?
Here, long-term visions, hybrid models, and public-private cooperation come together.
Optimization & Sector Coupling
An integrated, smart, and optimized hydrogen system.
This theme explores the architecture of regional ecosystems and their optimization through digital tools, data, AI, and collaborative platforms. It also questions the place of hydrogen in the energy-battery-electricity mix, and the acceleration policies needed.
A space to envision hydrogen as a systemic, optimized solution, fully integrated into local and national strategies.
