23 The Hydrogen Council A global CEO-level initiative, launched at the World Economic Forum 2017, in Davos, January 2017 With the ambition to: Accelerate their significant investment in the development and commercialization of the hydrogen and fuel cell sectors. Encourage key stakeholders increase their backing of hydrogen as part of the future energy mix with appropriate policies and supporting schemes. Composed of leading energy, transport and industry companies with a united vision and long-term ambition for hydrogen to foster the energy transition Membership increased from 13 steering members to 33 Steering members and 21 supporting members From 11 countries, covering three main regions : Europe, Asia and North America Co-chaired in 2018 by Air Liquide & Hyundai 23 McKinsey & Company 23

56 "Hydrogen is really at the heart of the energy transition. As we can produce heat and power directly from hydrogen in a clean way, we easily understand why it is important for this transition. It's the beginning of a journey, we've created a momentum and now it's all about scaling up!" Benoît Potier, CEO, Air Liquide 56 Renewable Energies and the Hydrogen Economy, Air Liquide ambition
