Why Hydrogen Is More Than Carbon: What Project Cancellations Are Missing

In this episode of The Hydrogen Podcast, Paul Rodden takes a fresh look at the wave of green hydrogen project cancellations that have shaken headlines and investor confidence.

Rather than panic over missed climate targets, we dig into what really matters:

• ✅ The 29 GW of projects stalled—and what that tells us
• 🔋 Why hydrogen’s energy density outperforms batteries
• 💡 The truth about hydrogen as a multi-sector energy integrator
• 🌬️ The health and economic benefits no one is talking about—like NOx, SOx, and PM2.5 reductions
• 💰 Why smart deployment beats megaproject hype, and where the ROI is actually strongest

From Singapore to Germany to the American Midwest, we explore examples of smart, scalable hydrogen strategies that are delivering value today—not just in emissions avoided, but in real-world health and energy benefits.

Let’s shift the narrative—from fear of failure to a better understanding of hydrogen’s true role in our energy future.
