We kick off our Hydrogen Bar podcast summer special with a deep dive into France’s hydrogen landscape, joined by experts Jan-Erik Starlander and Rémi Courbun from France Hydrogène.
We explore how France is ramping up its hydrogen ambitions, from massive electrolysis targets to pioneering projects in e-fuels and natural hydrogen. We discuss the challenges of scaling, the role of government strategy, and why France’s unique energy mix gives it a powerful advantage in the race for clean fuels. You’ll hear about hurdles, opportunities, and a few surprising developments that put France in the center of the global hydrogen map.
