Episode 1 | Professor Tom Jaramillo | Hydrogen Electrolysis as Flagship Technology for Decarbonization

In this podcast, Professor Jaramillo gives an overview of the different clean hydrogen production pathways and use cases and explains the growing role of hydrogen in a decarbonized world.  Additionally, don’t miss Professor Jaramillo’s career advice (34:30) and find out who inspires him most and why (43:15) at the end of the podcast. 

•  Today, Hydrogen is a very cheap chemical feedstock and already a crucial molecule, we depend on it to live (E.g fertilisers) 
• There won’t be just one clean hydrogen technology that solves all the problems, we need progress across all  
• Electrolyzers have been around for centuries. The game-changer today is cheap renewable electricity. This comes with a bright future for electrolysis to enable cost-effective green hydrogen production
• It is always important to create as many options as possible in the fast-evolving landscape of clean energy 
• The range of use cases for hydrogen is expanding with hydrogen’s growing role in a decarbonized economy. New use cases include steel, aviation, road transportation… 
• Within electrolysis, the different technologies (PEM, Alkaline, SOEC…) each have a role to play
