There is no shortage of discussion and excitement around green hydrogen’s future. But many people have wondered when we are actually going to see projects being built. In this episode, Jacob Susman speaks with Brett Perlman, the current CEO of The Center for Houston’s Future, who will be stepping into a new role focused on developing the Houston region’s hydrogen ecosystem. This includes the HyVelocity Hydrogen Hub, which is in line to receive $1.2 billion in Department of Energy funding to develop necessary infrastructure to support the shift to clean hydrogen. It’s a great example of federal funding catalyzing large private investments from industry leaders to get this industry off the ground.

Deployment to reach net zero will require a lot of private capital. As the wind and solar industries developed, pioneers like John Eber have played a key role in helping developers leverage future tax credits to access much-needed construction capital. In this episode, we discussed the lessons learned from the wind and solar energy markets, structuring deals to attract project financing, and the impact that recent U.S. legislation like the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and Inflation Reduction Act will have on green hydrogen development.
Correction: John Eber inadvertently said the financing deal for the Sweetwater wind farm in Texas was closed in June 2001, when in fact the correct year and what Mr. Eber meant to say was 2002.

Ammonia fertilizer has revolutionized agriculture, and is essential to our world food supply. But currently this ammonia is produced from natural gas and leads to heavy carbon emissions – this sector alone accounts for 1.2% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Clean ammonia can be made from green hydrogen, which is produced from water and renewable electricity, allowing us to feed the world’s population while protecting the planet. But currently barriers exist to broadscale adoption. In this episode, Jacob Susman speaks with Mark Behrman, CEO of LSB Industries, about how we can speed up the transition.
