Canada's Leading Hydrogen Event

The Canadian Hydrogen Convention marks a turning point in the global energy conversation. The era of speculative enthusiasm has given way to grounded innovation, real investment, and tangible deployment. This year’s convention is not about what hydrogen could do — it’s about what it is doing. 

Canada is building the hydrogen economy, not theorizing about it. And Edmonton, as the nation’s first hydrogen hub, is the perfect stage for this next chapter.

A strong hydrogen economy in Alberta means many things. It means more jobs and opportunities for Albertans, more reduced emissions choices for consumers and more business investment and development for our province. The Canadian Hydrogen Convention in Edmonton is a massive opportunity to share our story with the rest of the world.

Honourable Brian Jean
Minister of Energy and Minerals

Government of Alberta

Sunita Satyapal

It was an honor to provide a keynote at the Canadian Hydrogen Convention this year and share perspectives from more than three decades in hydrogen across government, industry, and academia. This is a critical time for the industry, and it was good to see numerous exhibitors and stakeholders across the hydrogen value chain. Keep up the momentum!

Dr. Sunita Satyapal
Former Director, U.S. Department of Energy, Hydrogen and Fuel Cells; Hydrogen Leader; and Former Industry Manager
Ran Headshot V2

We were proud to participate in this year’s Canadian Hydrogen Convention (CHC) in Edmonton. The MAX Power team had the incredible opportunity to engage with industry leaders across multiple touchpoints from our exhibition booth to deep technical discussions. A standout highlights were our geoscience-led technical presentation and main stage panel moderating / participating regarding First ever Natural Hydrogen Panel at CHC's history. The conference created a strong platform to educate and connect with industry leaders on the emerging clean affordable energy opportunity of Natural Hydrogen in Saskatchewan, Canada. We look forward to continuing to support and contribute to this important and evolving space in 2027.
