Mastering the Science of Hydrogen Technology with Enass Abo-Hamed | Conversations in Cleantech | Season four, Episode eight
In the latest episode of the Conversations in Cleantech podcast, we are thrilled to welcome Enass Abo-Hamed, Co-Founder and CEO of H2GO Power. H2GO Power was founded eight and a half years ago by Enass and her fellow co-founders, who met as they all completed their PhDs at Cambridge University. The core technology behind H2GO Power's offering actually came from Enass' IP from her PhD. Since deciding to leap from the lab to the boardroom, Enass and the H2GO Power team have worked tirelessly to refine the technology and are now at the deployment stage of their model. With several large-scale industry partnerships announced and many more in the pipeline, there really is no stopping H2GO Power on its mission to deliver clean, accessible and reliable hydrogen energy. During this insightful conversation, Enass details the H2GO Power journey and what the future looks like for the firm. She also discusses how mastering their technology has been and will always be their priority.
