6. Discovery, Design & Deployment: The Science Behind Hydrogen with Tim Mays

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 when it comes to hydrogen, our energy security and the planet’s future may well depend on what we build at the molecular scale. https://www.linkedin.com/company/gw-shift/ https://www.instagram.com/gwshift/ [https://www.instagram.com/gwshift/] https://www.facebook.com/gwshiftuk [https://www.facebook.com/gwshiftuk]

5. Industry, Innovation & Investment: Wales’ Net-Zero Future with Ben Burggraaf

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 and policy to make change possible. https://www.linkedin.com/company/gw-shift/ https://www.instagram.com/gwshift/ [https://www.instagram.com/gwshift/] https://www.facebook.com/gwshiftuk [https://www.facebook.com/gwshiftuk]

4. Policy, Place & Partnerships: A Local Authority Perspective on Net Zero with Anna Lewis

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/ [https://www.instagram.com/gwshift/] https://www.facebook.com/gwshiftuk [https://www.facebook.com/gwshiftuk]

3. Security, Supply & Sustainability: Wales & West Utilities on the Energy Transition with Matt Hindle

The energy system that powers our homes and communities is evolving, but what does that really mean in practice? Karen Brooks is joined by Matt Hindle from Wales & West Utilities to explore hydrogen’s role in the UK’s energy transition, how the gas network is changing, and the challenges around safety, skills and delivery. Because the transition to cleaner energy only works if it’s trusted, reliable and ready for real life.   https://www.linkedin.com/company/gw-shift/ https://www.instagram.com/gwshift/ [https://www.instagram.com/gwshift/] https://www.facebook.com/gwshiftuk [https://www.facebook.com/gwshiftuk]
