#150 Green Hydrogen: Creating the System

February 17, 2022

Green hydrogen, created from renewable energy resources, has been hailed as a panacea to decarbonisation of heat and fluctuation in natural gas prices. But the reality is that not every application will be either cost effective or practically viable. In this episode we explore the case for green hydrogen and find that its success is dependent on the creation of a system where each part of the cycle, from generation to final user is connected.
