National Geographic Hydrogen

Hydrogen is set to play a big role in our future energy system. In the documentary Hydrogen: Our New Energy? I embark on a journey to discover the current state of hydrogen in the Netherlands. What’s already possible? What challenges and solutions are we facing?

I visit the ports of Amsterdam and Groningen, where I talk with experts about the role of ports in the hydrogen supply chain and how we can make industry more sustainable with hydrogen. Many scientists and companies see hydrogen as one of the key solutions for providing the Netherlands with sustainable energy. There are even advanced plans to repurpose our natural gas network for transporting this gas. Beyond industry, ships, trucks, and even airplanes could run on hydrogen in the future. In Delft, I hopped into the race car of the Forze Delft racing team.In Hydrogen: Our New Energy? I talk with people to find out where we stand now and what the future might look like. This Dutch production aired on National Geographic in September 2021.
