Project country: Brazil |
Sector: Energy |
Expert partner: LEVE |
The goal of this skill-share was to support the Brazilian Government and energy sector to build the basis for a national low-carbon hydrogen programme. Specifically, the skill-share focused on repurposing oil and gas infrastructure to support Government ambitions in shifting the energy sector towards producing hydrogen. Stakeholders expressed a particular interest in UK business models that could sustain this shift, as well as the process from a hybrid model to a fossil fuel free model and the impact of these transitions.
Stakeholders included the Brazil's Empresa de Pesquisa Energética (EPE), SUAPE Port and the State of Pernambuco Government, the State of Rio Government, Brazil’s National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP), and Senai-PE: the government hub for industrial learning and technology.
Key Actions:
Gender Equity and Social Inclusion (GESI) was incorporated into the content of the presentations delivered, suggesting criteria to be applied under GESI policies and discussed further in open discussions and panels. The expert shared case studies applying gender equality (in terms of diversity) and social inclusion throughout discussions to allow for further reflection. SUAPE also presented evidence of good GESI practices within their company for discussion.
