Everything About Hydrogen

On this weeks episode the team are talking all things hydrogen with Craig Scott, the Group Manager for Toyota North America, a global automotive giant and a recognised pioneer in the field of fuel cell mobility. On the show we get into the story of Toyota’s roll out of fuel cell mobility solutions in North America, the challenges and opportunities that fuel cell vehicles can offer in the hydrogen market and the challenges around infrastructure. Importantly we also dive into the scaling up work that Toyota is undertaking and some of its plans for next steps on the mission to become the world’s leader in fuel cell mobility solutions. All this and more on the show!

On this weeks episode the team are talking all things hydrogen with Jacob Krogsgaard, the CEO of Everfuel, a leading supplier of green hydrogen for mobility and industry in Europe. Since its establishment by Nel and a consortium of parties and investors, Everfuel has become a market leader in establishing green hydrogen solutions for mobility in Europe, and has recently expanded into areas such as power-to-gas as well. The team catch up with Jacob to discuss Everfuel's business model, the establishment of the H2Bus Consortium, Jacob’s views on how the market for green hydrogen is evolving in Europe and where he sees the greatest early potential for scaling.…..All this and more on the show!

Hello and welcome to 2020, or as we call it “The Decade of Hydrogen”! For this show the team are taking a dive into the world of hydrogen trains and who better to speak to this space than Mike Muldoon, Head of Business Development and Marketing for Alstom UK&I. Alstom have been the pioneers of hydrogen powered rail and in addition to two operating trains in Germany, have secured over Eur500 million of orders for hydrogen trains. On the show we talk to Mike about why Alstom see hydrogen as a key part of the evolution of the rail industry towards zero emissions, and why hydrogen today is such a compelling proposition for operators and investors.
