E47: Making Green Hydrogen - Koji Muto (Frontier #7)

Green Hydrogen = hydrogen made from renewable resources ♻️

Why isn't green hydrogen everywhere? Because making green hydrogen is still expensive 💰

Koji Muto is CEO of Ki Hydrogen, who are slashing the cost of making green hydrogen dramatically by reducing the energy needed by up to 75%. Listen in to hear how exactly they achieve this remarkable and innovative feat 👉

Koji & James discuss: how Ki Hydrogen is making green hydrogen, how to reduce the energy required when making green hydrogen, why licensing out your technology can be a good idea as a deep tech founder, the future of hydrogen including infrastructure and storage, and why making green hydrogen is such a pressing issue.

We also cover: Koji's background in oil & gas, working with nuclear power and small modular reactors (SMRs), the carbon capture and direct air capture (DAC) opportunity, Koji's experience at startup accelerators, and why it's useful for technical founders to do an MBA.
