The first Hydrogen Shot Summit took place Aug. 31–Sept. 1, 2021.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Hydrogen Shot Summit convened thousands of stakeholders online to introduce the Hydrogen Shot, solicit dialogue, and rally the global community on the urgency of tackling the climate crisis through concrete actions and innovation. The Hydrogen Shot Summit was held virtually August 31 and September 1, 2021.

DOE shared results from the recent Request for Information and solicited feedback on pathways to achieving the Hydrogen Shot's "1 1 1" goal of $1 for 1 kg of clean hydrogen in 1 decade.

Breakout sessions on various clean hydrogen production pathways as well as deployment and financing helped identify key challenges and potential strategies to address them.
