H2TechTalk

In this episode, we speak with Dara O’Neill, Global Sales Director, Clean Energy, Mott Corporation about advancing H2 production through innovative filtration solutions. Learn how AFP Series filters, gas-liquid coalescers, porous metal sheets and custom-designed systems enhance ultra-high purity H2, improve electrolyzer efficiency, tackle high-temperature gasification challenges and ensure reliable large-scale H2 operations.

In this episode, we sit down with Scott McKay, Senior Vice President, Division Manager - Americas at ABB, to explore how ABB’s partnership with Charbone Hydrogen is shaping the future of clean energy in North America and beyond. Scott shares insights on the advantages of modular green H2 production sites, the role of Québec’s Green H2 and Bioenergy Strategy in accelerating progress, and the potential for similar policy support in other regions. We discuss how digital technology, automation, and cross-industry collaborations can drive the transition from grey to green H2, optimize existing energy systems, and lay the groundwork for next-generation energy solutions.

In the debut episode of the WGLC Podcast Series: Empowered to Lead, Conference Director Rachel McGhie sits down with Lauren Levicki Courville, President of Dress for Success Houston, to explore what empowerment looks like for women navigating economic independence, career growth and leadership. Lauren shares the incredible work of DFS Houston—an organization that has impacted close to 50,000 women and 65,000 children through professional development, mentorship and community support. From the first suit to sustained career advancement, she paints a vivid picture of how confidence and community are transformative forces, as well as the shared mission of DFS Houston and WGLC in advancing women’s leadership in energy and beyond. This episode is a reminder that leadership doesn’t start in the boardroom—it starts when a woman realizes she deserves a seat at the table.
