In this episode of The Hydrogen Podcast, we break down a high-stakes development in U.S. hydrogen policy:
📰 Politico reports the Department of Energy may cut funding for 4 of 7 hydrogen hubs—mostly in blue states—while preserving hubs in red states like Texas and Louisiana. The move sparks bipartisan concern but could reshape the U.S. hydrogen strategy around blue hydrogen from natural gas.
We cover three crucial angles:
💥 1. Why Blue Hydrogen is the Right Market Builder
✅ Uses existing infrastructure & natural gas reserves
✅ Costs just $1.50–$2.00/kg vs. $3–$4/kg for green hydrogen
✅ Displaces diesel emissions that cause 30,000 premature deaths/year
✅ Cuts harmful NOx, SOx, and PM2.5 particulates
✅ SMR + CCS = 1–2 kg CO2e/kg H₂ (vs. 10 kg for gray hydrogen)📈 2. The Economic Upside
✅ $100–$150 million in profit per 200,000 tons/year
✅ $6.5–$13 billion saved in health costs
✅ 140,000+ jobs projected by 2030
✅ 25% IRR with 45Q and 45V tax credits
✅ Exports to Europe could rival LNG revenue🛡️ 3. Boosting U.S. Energy Security
✅ Cuts diesel imports by 130 million gallons/year
✅ Strengthens grid resilience with hydrogen pipelines + salt cavern storage
✅ Protects critical infrastructure from particulate corrosion
✅ Reduces fertilizer import dependence via ammonia integrationThis isn't just about emissions—it's about economic strength, public health, and national security. Tune in for the full breakdown of what this shift means for the future of hydrogen in America.

Hydrogen vs. Battery Trucks: Which Will Dominate Long-Haul Freight?
Welcome to The Hydrogen Podcast! 🎙️ Today, Paul Rodden takes on one of the most hotly debated topics in transportation: Will Class 8 trucks be powered by hydrogen or batteries? A recent Forbes article claims hydrogen has already failed—but is that really true? In this episode, we challenge that assumption by analyzing fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), hydrogen internal combustion engines (H2-ICEs), and battery-electric trucks (BEVs) in terms of range, payload capacity, refueling, infrastructure, and economic viability.
🔹 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
✅ Energy Density & Range: Hydrogen vs. Batteries for long-haul trucking
✅ Payload Capacity: How weight impacts fleet revenue
✅ Refueling & Infrastructure: Hydrogen fueling vs. megawatt-scale charging
✅ Economic Viability: Hydrogen fuel cost projections & total cost of ownership (TCO)
✅ H2-ICE Trucks: A faster transition to hydrogen for fleets?Key Insights & Comparisons:
Tesla Semi: 300-500 miles (lower with heavy loads & extreme temperatures)Volvo FH Hydrogen Fuel Cell Truck: 600-1,000 miles per refuelingH2-ICE Trucks (Cummins, Toyota): Diesel-like power & torque with near-zero emissionsHydrogen energy density: 33.3 kWh/kg vs. 0.25-0.30 kWh/kg for lithium-ion batteriesRefueling time: Hydrogen 10-15 minutes vs. BEV charging 1-4+ hours
1️⃣ Hydrogen vs. Battery Truck Range & Performance:2️⃣ Payload Capacity & Weight Considerations:
BEV trucks require 5,000-8,000 lb battery packs, reducing cargo capacityHydrogen fuel cell trucks use lightweight compressed tanks, maximizing payloadH2-ICE trucks use existing diesel engine platforms for a lighter, familiar designFleet profitability: More cargo per trip = higher revenue per mile3️⃣ Refueling & Infrastructure Challenges:
Battery-Electric Trucks:Require megawatt-scale chargers placing extreme demand on gridsDowntime for charging reduces fleet utilization ratesHydrogen Fueling Stations:Being deployed by Shell, Air Liquide, TotalEnergies along freight corridorsRefueling mirrors diesel, requiring no major workflow changes for fleetsH2-ICE Trucks:Can utilize modified diesel refueling stations, reducing infrastructure costs4️⃣ Economic Viability & Market Trends:
Hydrogen fuel price: $6-$10/kg (2025), projected to fall below $3/kg by 2030Hydrogen fuel cost per mile: $0.50-$0.80, approaching diesel parityHydrogen truck price: $300K-$450K, projected under $250K by 2030Major adopters: Amazon, Walmart, Maersk, UPS investing in hydrogen truckingEU & US billions in hydrogen trucking incentives & infrastructure expansion📌 Chapters for Easy Navigation:
