Speech content：
As the world shifts to cleaner energy sources and achieving Net Zero targets by 2050, Green Hydrogen will play an increasingly important role to many countries including Taiwan. The Queensland Government of Australia is aspiring to become a green hydrogen superpower and the state has around 50 projects in the pipeline with over $10 billion already invested.
