The programme is focused on advancing innovation and rapid growth of clean energy technology in order to address global decarbonisation goals.
The primary focus areas of the AWS Clean Energy Accelerator are economic hydrogen generation, transport and use; advanced materials; carbon capture, utility and storage; energy storage; grid modernisation; energy security and reliance.
Rami Reshef, co-founder and CEO of GenCell Energy, said, “We are excited to join the AWS Clean Energy Accelerator and work towards overcoming clean energy and decarbonisation challenges.”
Howard Gefen, General Manager of Energy and Utilities at AWS, added, “The ground-breaking innovations, products and solutions displayed in the previous Clean Energy Accelerator programmes have offered an inspiring glimpse into the energy systems of the future, and chart a path towards accelerating decarbonisation at scale.”
AWS’ programme, designed to spur co-innovation through energy collaborations, is centred on the needs of mature start-ups globally. Leading energy organisations will work with selected start-ups on addressing clean energy and decarbonisation challenges.
The programme will include 12 weeks of virtual and in-person programming, beginning in Seattle in April (2023). It will culminate with the Innovation Showcase at the 2023 United Nations Climate Conference (COP 28) in Dubai at the end of this year.
In 2021, the Net Zero Technology Centre being a similar programme, the TechX Accelerator. It involved supporting start-ups active in the clean energy space, including those developing green and blue hydrogen technologies, with up to £100,000 through its programme.

A Successful Ecosystem for Green Hydrogen – London
It is becoming ever clearer that the entire green hydrogen ecosystem requires alignment. Hydrogen’s potential, performance, and safety are proven. Green hydrogen is widely accepted as a core pathway to Net Zero, yet the key levers in the transition are not yet in-sync.
At H2 View we recognise the increasingly challenging economic climate that various countries/economies are currently facing. We want to help as many companies as possible in the hydrogen space to achieve their needs as competitively and logically as possible. As a result, we felt it was a compelling decision to relocate our previously planned event in Iceland, to a venue in London.
Join H2 View in London, one of the foremost investment capitals of the world, for a 1.5-day event devoted to thought leadership, insights, and actionable takeaways in the green hydrogen ecosystem, combined with the connections and networking to deliver against those objectives.
This H2 View hydrogen summit is dedicated to dissecting the ecosystem requirements to truly realise a green hydrogen-fuelled future across industries, transport, and society. This event will tackle all sides of the energy ecosystem, from wind and solar power requirements to additionality, water sustainability, electrolyser technologies, and investment and policy climate.
