H2TechTalk

In this episode, a leading UK hydrogen industry advocate and clean-energy investor, Lord Jo Bamford, discusses the real-world bottlenecks facing hydrogen production, infrastructure and demand, how fuel-cell and combustion technologies compare for different applications, and what price points and policy shifts are needed to make hydrogen commercially competitive without government support. The conversation also covers a recent record-breaking hydrogen combustion speed run and what it signals about the technology's potential, plus the milestones that would mark a genuine UK hydrogen economy within five years. A must-listen for energy and transport professionals tracking hydrogen's shift from pilot projects to commercial scale.

In this episode, JCB engineer Simon Dowson discusses breaking a land speed record with a H2 combustion streamliner at the Bonneville Salt Flats, the twin-engine technology adapted from construction equipment and why H2 combustion offers a practical path forward for heavy equipment where EVs and fuel cells fall short.

For downstream operators, environmental performance can no longer be separate from operational performance. A missed emissions issue, delayed test result, unreliable monitoring system or fragmented compliance workflow can affect uptime, permit confidence, worker safety, community trust and the ability to move through critical operating windows without disruption. In this discussion, Jenna Granstra, Director of Project Development, Onterris, explores how leading downstream organizations are building environmental programs that directly support operational assurance, reliability and efficiency.

In this episode, cybersecurity expert Paul Smith, Honeywell Technologies, discusses the evolving cybersecurity threat landscape, the impact of artificial intelligence on cyber threats and strategies for industrial cybersecurity resilience. A must-listen for industry professionals aiming to stay ahead in cybersecurity.

Hydrogen's production costs are falling fast, but getting the gas from point A to point B remains the industry's overlooked bottleneck. Recorded live at the World Hydrogen Summit in Rotterdam, Jim Watkins sits down with Dr. Jahan Kanga, CEO of Australian startup RUX Energy, to dig into why storage and transport are still the Achilles' heel of the hydrogen economy. Jahan explains how metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) could cut midstream costs from $10-20/kg to under $1/kg, what their containerized Harmony storage unit means for maritime and off-grid applications, and why the regulatory conversation is finally moving in the right direction.
