“I am deeply impressed by the mission of GIHF and its vision of strengthening global academic collaboration in hydrogen and fuel cell research. As someone who has walked this path, I am encouraged to see new researchers emerge and contribute to global innovation. Please accept my warmest wishes for the institute’s strong progress and future success.”

“Thirty years after the Hydrogen Future Act of 1996, it is encouraging to see continued progress. The launch of the Global Institute for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells will help strengthen global collaboration and advance scientific innovation in this important field.”

“As former CEO of one of the world's leading hydrogen fuel cell companies, I have witnessed firsthand the challenges of moving from research through real-world deployment. I believe GIHF arrives at a critically important moment. The next chapter for hydrogen will be shaped by rigorous science, practical engineering, and trusted international collaboration. Institutions like this are essential to strengthening the bridge between discovery and meaningful implementation.”

“Hydrogen innovation cannot advance in isolation. Europe has built a world-class research ecosystem, but the next generation of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies will increasingly depend on our ability to connect scientific excellence globally. GIHF can become an important bridge between leading research communities, helping transform knowledge into competitive technologies and solutions with global impact.”

“The global hydrogen industry is at an important turning point, preparing for its next phase of growth. At this critical moment, I am pleased to join GIHF as an early Honorary Advisor and believe it can play an important role in advancing global collaboration and innovation in hydrogen and fuel cells. I look forward to working together to build new momentum for the global hydrogen industry.”

“GIHF fills a genuine gap in the global hydrogen landscape by bringing scientific rigour and international cooperation to a sector that needs both. As a policymaker, I have seen first-hand the disconnects that can exist between industry, governments and other stakeholders, particularly as the hydrogen ecosystem evolves across borders. Hydrogen is growing rapidly, but its ambitions will require catalytic institutions that can bring stakeholders together, strengthen knowledge and help translate ambition into action. GH2 India congratulates GIHF and looks forward to collaborating.”

“The GIHF is a great new global initiative driven by the unparalleled qualities of experts around the world who have shown unwavering leadership and dedication to furthering hydrogen and fuel cells through scientific rigor and global collaboration. Looking forward to working together!”

“Congratulations on the establishment of GIHF! It will be a valuable platform for research, innovation, and collaborations, and more importantly for fostering the next generation. I am sure GIHF will further enhance credibility of hydrogen technologies and accelerate the utilization of hydrogen across the world.”

“Global cooperation in hydrogen and fuel cell research is essential to accelerate progress. GIHF provides an important platform for connecting scientific expertise and leadership across borders.”

“Hydrogen is essential for a clean, affordable and secure energy system, but many still poorly understand it. GIHF will bridge a crucial gap by advancing knowledge globally, fostering collaboration, and linking academia to businesses and political decision-makers. GIHF's mission is important and deserves support.”

“I believe technological neutrality in hydrogen production and use, paired with international collaboration, is essential to accelerate society's embrace of low-emissions hydrogen — both as a new fuel and energy vector and as a key driver of industrial decarbonization. This requires quality information, strong science and technology, and concrete action linking innovation to deployment. GIHF is a welcome platform to advance this agenda.”

“I'm proud to congratulate the Global Institute for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells on this important milestone. I've long believed America's strength comes from embracing an all-of-the-above energy strategy. That means continuing to invest in technologies like hydrogen while also producing the reliable, affordable fossil energy that keeps our nation energy independent as we build the next generation of energy innovation. I wish GIHF great success in advancing innovation that strengthens both our economy and our energy security.”

“Bringing the carbon-free world within reach of the fossil one is won not by declarations but by the steady work of closing the cost gap between clean molecules and fossil ones. That effort is bigger than any single company or country: it calls for all of our vital forces to pull together, beyond geopolitics. Congratulations on launching this global research institute — I look forward to what we can build together.”

“Industry has made tremendous progress and continuous advancements in innovation and technology will be required for the hydrogen and fuel cell sector to achieve sustainable commercial scale. GIHF offers a means to accelerate and merge research advances with applications across production, distribution and use. Congratulations to GIHF and I look forward to working together.”

“After many years working in hydrogen across academia, industry and public policy, I am convinced that the sector needs trusted, science-based platforms that connect knowledge with real deployment. GIHF can help build that bridge globally, strengthening collaboration, education and transparency at exactly the right time.”

“Hydrogen's future will not be built by one country, one institution, or one technology—it will be built through global collaboration. GIHF creates an important bridge between scientific excellence, technological innovation, industry, and the next generation of hydrogen leaders. By bringing expertise together across borders, GIHF can help turn knowledge into impact and accelerate the development of a credible, sustainable and globally connected hydrogen future.”

“On behalf of the Clean Hydrogen Partnership in Europe, dedicated to advancing European research and innovation on hydrogen technologies, congratulations on the creation of the Global Institute for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells. Transparency, data hubs, and knowledge exchange are critical, and we look forward to working together.”

“As hydrogen moves from ambition to delivery, industry, investors, governments, and the civil society need trusted facts, robust data, and shared knowledge. GIHF brings together global scientific expertise to foster collaboration and build confidence in the decisions that will shape a clean, secure, and resilient future.”
