In this episode of The Hydrogen Podcast, host Paul Rodden unpacks two major stories that reveal the tension—and opportunity—in hydrogen’s global rollout:

🇪🇺 Europe’s Hydrogen Infrastructure Faces Multi-Year Delays
🇸🇪 Volvo Brings Back the Internal Combustion Engine—Fueled by Hydrogen

You’ll learn:

🔹 Why Europe’s €340B hydrogen vision is stalling amid red tape and regulatory chaos
 🔹 What the delay of H2Med and other pipelines means for the global hydrogen economy
 🔹 How Volvo’s hydrogen-ICE engine slashes CO₂-equivalent emissions by 98%
 🔹 Why this approach may be the cheapest and fastest route to hydrogen-powered mobility
🔹 How legacy manufacturing infrastructure is getting a second life—with zero-carbon fuel

We break down the economic, regulatory, and technical crosswinds shaping hydrogen’s future in mobility and infrastructure—revealing where the true bottlenecks lie, and who might leap ahead as global hydrogen leadership is up for grabs.
