In this episode of The Hydrogen Podcast, we unpack three major hydrogen headlines shaping the global energy sector:

đź’° Record Investments

  • Over $110 billion committed across 500+ hydrogen projects
  • $35 billion growth in just one year
  • 50% annual growth since 2020, but only for projects with real economics & policy support

🌍 Geo-Hydrogen Discovery

  • Massive hydrogen reservoir discovered near the ancient Mussau Trench
  • Hundreds of hydrothermal “Kunlun pipes” up to 1,800m wide
  • Suggests hydrogen reserves exist far from tectonic boundaries
  • Could reshape future energy economics & supply security

đźš« Strategic Exits

  • BP, Origin Energy, Air Products pull out of costly or unsupported projects
  • Nearly 6 million tonnes/year of cancelled hydrogen capacity
  • Lessons: demand certainty, strong offtake agreements, and viable economics are non-negotiable

⚖️ Key Takeaway
Hydrogen is moving beyond hype into disciplined growth. The winners will be projects with solid business models, demand alignment, and resilient technology.

Betrayal Season 5

Betrayal Season 5

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
