The Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia University SIPA’s Women in Energy initiative invites you to a student roundtable with Ann-Kathrin Merz, Industry and Strategy Lead from First Ammonia. As the energy transition accelerates, alternative fuels such as hydrogen and ammonia are gaining attention for their potential to decarbonize sectors that are difficult to electrify, including shipping, heavy industry, and long-distance transport. Yet significant questions remain about the technologies’ commercial pace and the magnitude of development. In this interactive conversation, students will discuss the evolving role of alternative fuels, the challenges and opportunities in deploying hydrogen and ammonia, and career pathways in emerging clean energy technologies.
This roundtable will provide students with the opportunity to engage directly with a practitioner working at the forefront of alternative fuel development and the global energy transition. Lunch will be provided.
