Description

The Only Way is Hydrogen? – Small molecule. Big clean future.
 

Hosted by Karen Brooks, Deputy Director of GW-SHIFT and green hydrogen-curious newbie, The Only Way is Hydrogen is a 12-episode podcast exploring the real role hydrogen could play in creating a cleaner future.
 
Across the series, Karen speaks with experts from local government, energy utilities, transport, industry, research, the arts, businesses and communities to cut through hype and explain hydrogen in plain language.
 
Episodes explore hydrogen’s role in heating homes, transport, and industry; how it compares with electricity; what it means for cost, reliability, jobs, and everyday life; and what must change in policy and infrastructure to reach net zero by 2050.
 
Rather than promoting green hydrogen as a silver bullet, the series focuses on evidence, lived experience, and honest debate - helping listeners understand where hydrogen genuinely fits, and where it doesn’t.
 
Is hydrogen the only way - or just one part of the solution?

This episode of The Only Way Is Hydrogen? shifts the conversation away from asking whether hydrogen works and towards the bigger challenge: how do we make hydrogen happen? Chris Foxall, Founder & CEO of Hyppo, offers a unique commercial perspective, explaining how Hyppo is helping turn successful demonstrations into repeatable deployment by creating demand, connecting infrastructure and building regional energy ecosystems that deliver today. https://www.linkedin.com/company/gw-shif...
Not electric or hydrogen. Electric and hydrogen. Building a transport system fit for every journey. Transport is one of the biggest challenges on the road to net zero. While electric vehicles dominate headlines, there are many sectors where batteries alone may not provide the answer. In this episode, Sara Sloman discusses how hydrogen can complement electrification, the importance of customer experience, infrastructure, policy and innovation, and why the clean transport transition will requi...
Hydrogen has enormous potential as a clean energy carrier, but producing, storing and transporting it efficiently remains one of the key scientific challenges. In this episode of The Only Way Is Hydrogen?, Karen Brooks speaks with Professor Tim Mays from the University of Bath about the science behind hydrogen storage. The conversation explores how materials science could unlock new ways of storing hydrogen safely and the importance of collaboration between research and industry. Because whe...
Heavy industry is at the heart of the net-zero challenge - powering modern life while producing a significant share of global emissions. Karen Brooks is joined by Ben Burggraaf, Chief Executive Officer of Net Zero Industry Wales, to explore how sectors like steel, cement, chemicals and manufacturing can decarbonise, and what it will take to drive innovation and investment at scale. Because this transition isn’t just about cutting emissions - it’s about building the infrastructure, investment ...
Local authorities are on the front line of net zero, making real decisions on energy, infrastructure and what works for communities. Karen Brooks is joined by Anna Lewis from Caerphilly County Borough Council to explore where hydrogen fits into local delivery, the challenges of balancing cost and impact, and what it takes to turn ambition into action. Because net zero isn’t a plan. it’s a delivery challenge. https://www.linkedin.com/company/gw-shift/ https://www.instagram.com/gwshift/ ...
