Janice Lin, the founder and president of the Green Hydrogen Coalition (https://www.ghcoalition.org/) , joins the show to discuss how green hydrogen is poised to play a larger role in everyday energy generation and consumption. From US efforts like HyDeal LA (https://www.ghcoalition.org/hydeal-la) (22:28) and the Western Green Hydrogen Initiative (https://www.ghcoalition.org/wghi) (24:12) to international endeavors like the European Hydrogen Backbone (https://ec.europa.eu/info/sites/default/files/energy_climate_change_environment/events/presentations/05.04_mf34_presentation-european_hydrogen_backbone-muthmann.pdf) (14:50), Janice outlines how quickly the green hydrogen economy is accelerating.
Janice also highlights how green hydrogen as an energy storage solution could reduce blackouts and she also poses a fantastic question (1949): We have a Strategic Petroleum Reserve … why not a Strategic Renewable Energy Reserve?
PODBRIEF: (33:26) What would happen if a Category 5 hurricane slammed into an offshore wind farm? Plus, a funny study about a wind farm to protect New Orleans from hurricanes.
