Hydrogen at a crossroads: Production, policy and the path to commercial viability

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.
