HYDROGEN NEWS 🚀 How Europe Plans to Crush Fossil Fuels! Dr. Lluís Soler Turu

Show notes

In this episode of Battery Generation, we dive deep into the future of green hydrogen in Europe with our distinguished guest, Dr. Lluís Soler Turu from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) in Barcelona. As a leading researcher in hydrogen technologies, Lluís Soler shares insights from his lab where green hydrogen is already being produced using six operational research electrolyzers.

We explore how his team is advancing fuel cell technologies for mobile applications, especially in heavy-duty vehicles such as trucks, and how they’re developing innovative transport systems to distribute hydrogen efficiently.

Our conversation covers the broader landscape of hydrogen's role in Europe's energy transition, guided by Michael Liebreich’s “Hydrogen Ladder 5.0”. We evaluate where hydrogen truly fits in—from niche industrial uses to the complex challenges in aviation and long-distance mobility.

LluĂ­s Soler provides valuable insights into the upcoming ramp-up of the European green hydrogen market and the ambitious vision for a trans-European hydrogen core network. This network of pipelines aims to connect production sites with key industrial consumers, accelerating the shift away from fossil fuels.
