As hydrogen technologies gain momentum in global energy system management, public awareness and workforce readiness become crucial for effective integration and long-term stability. This study presents the "Green Ambassadors" program at Holon Institute of Technology (HIT), Israel, as an innovative educational model that supports the transition to a hydrogen-based economy through early-stage engagement and interdisciplinary learning.

The program combines academic content on hydrogen production and energy system balancing with experiential demonstrations and school outreach. Engineering students and elementary pupils participate in hands-on activities illustrating renewable hydrogen generation, storage, and application within power systems. A mixed-methods evaluation, involving surveys and interviews with students, staff, and school participants, reveals a marked improvement in comprehension of hydrogen technologies and their role in future energy systems.

Findings highlight the program’s contribution to enhancing system-level understanding of hydrogen's role in grid stability, balancing, and decarbonization. The study advocates for integrating similar education-based models to accelerate social acceptance, regulatory readiness, and professional capacity for hydrogen deployment.
