Green, or renewable, hydrogen could displace carbon-based fuels in everything from fertilisers to steel-making to fuel for ships, he suggests.
Moberg talks about green hydrogen’s challenges, including building public acceptance for the roll-out of more solar and wind power, and his views on the role of the private sector in bringing about “real change”.
