The Hydrogen Podcast

Hydrogen in Hawaii, Europe's Funding Gap, and Germany’s $127M Hydrogen Hub Explained


Listen Later

Today on The Hydrogen Podcast, we explore three critical stories shaping hydrogen’s future:

🌴 Hawaii's Hydrogen Pilot with Liquid Carriers
A new collaboration between Hawaii Gas and Ayrton Energy is testing liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHC) to safely store and transport hydrogen at ambient conditions. We break down how this tech could bypass high-pressure tanks and enable hydrogen integration into Hawaii’s 2045 renewable energy goals—despite high local electricity costs.

🇪🇺 IEA Warns of Hydrogen Project Delays in Northwest Europe
At the World Hydrogen Summit, the IEA revealed that only 6% of hydrogen projects in Northwest Europe are moving forward. We analyze the grid integration, storage bottlenecks, and investment shortfalls—and what must change to turn Europe's ambitious targets into real-world deployments.

🇩🇪 Germany’s Lubmin Hydrogen Hub Gets $127M EU Grant
Deutsche ReGas secures EU funding for a 200 MW electrolyzer plant in Lubmin, with plans to scale to 500 MW. Learn how this project fits into Germany’s industrial hydrogen goals, the economic hurdles of offshore wind-based electrolysis, and why regional competition could slow its impact.

📊 What You’ll Learn:
 – How LOHC tech could solve hydrogen transport bottlenecks
 – Why Europe’s hydrogen market faces a “reality check” despite strong policy support
 – The risks and rewards of Germany’s expanding hydrogen infrastructure
 – Global takeaways for policy, investment, and technical scalability
