What the world needs right now is a highly-efficient, low-polluting fuel that can be made with zero CO2 emissions. Hydrogen for the win! And it's also the most abundant element on earth. So, why does 99% of global hydrogen production currently use fossil fuels—generating the same amount of CO2 as the UK and Indonesia combined?    On this week's Shared Lunch, resource economics consultant Simon Coates and Meridian Energy's head of development Guy Waipara talk about hydrogen's crucial role in the global energy transition and the opportunities and challenges for New Zealand.       Shared Lunch is a conversation with experts, CEOs, and you.
