Persons without a valid study right at a Finnish university or university of applied sciences have preference to this course.

This course examines the emerging geopolitics of hydrogen. This involves political risks along with economic and power political competition among producer and consumer countries of hydrogen and related derivative fuels. This competition in turn influences the operating environment of firms in various sectors and value chains of hydrogen business. The course offers a global level outlook into these matters, scrutinising the key concepts of hydrogen geopolitics with illustrative case studies on the EU context, North America, and the Asian context, as well as on the role of fossil fuel producers and implications for energy security and energy diplomacy.
