Who We Are

Simon Fraser University is a leading research university, advancing an inclusive and sustainable future. Our purpose – the essence of SFU – is to create and connect knowledge, learning and community for deeper understanding and meaningful impact. We are committed to fostering excellence, innovation, belonging and community in all that we do.

The Hydrogen Hub is a new University Core Facility that is intended to advance BC’s leadership position in the global hydrogen value chain. Along with a consortium of industry and government partners, we aim to dramatically lower the production costs of clean hydrogen. The Hydrogen Hub will provide the groundwork for joint collaborations between industry and academia to de-risk innovative hydrogen technologies and support pilots in policy and regulation.
