In this episode of The Hydrogen Podcast, Paul Rodden explores the real future of hydrogen in transportation—beyond the headlines.

🚫 Why Stellantis is abandoning hydrogen vehicle development
🚗 How Toyota, BMW, and Hyundai are doubling down on fuel cell mobility
🧪 New hydrogen sources: Natural Hydrogen, Methane Pyrolysis, and Nuclear H₂
🚚 Why hydrogen still dominates the future of heavy-duty transport
🌍 The lifecycle economics and environmental case vs. batteries

We’ll break down:

✅ The infrastructure and incentive gaps stalling hydrogen vehicle rollout
 ✅ How BMW’s iX5 and Toyota’s Mirai point to fuel cell resilience
 ✅ Why new hydrogen production methods could be cleaner and cheaper than batteries
✅ The economic argument for scaling hydrogen in trucking, buses, and fleet transport
✅ The role of geopolitics and resource scarcity in shaping the next mobility era

As lithium, cobalt, and nickel demand soar, could hydrogen offer a more sustainable, flexible future for global transport?

This episode offers a full-spectrum look at the tech, policy, and economics driving mobility beyond hydrocarbons.
