The Hydrogen Colour Rainbow 🌈 Explained @EngineeringwithRosie

Uploaded June 2026 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

An older explanation video from the channel.

The different colours of hydrogen aren't about the hydrogen itself – they're shorthand for how it's produced. Some methods rely on fossil fuels, while others use renewable or nuclear energy.

Which hydrogen colour do you think has the biggest role to play in the future?

If we could tap into even a tiny fraction of this geothermal energy, it could power the world for millennia with clean energy on demand day and night and no matter the weather or the season. The only problem is that in most places on earth, geothermal power is locked away deep below the surface – too deep to drill, except in those lucky locations where underground reservoirs of steam and hot water exist close to the surface. But new geothermal technologies could make this energy accessible almost anywhere. In this video we’re going to find out how exactly how these technologies are digging deeper and hotter and hoping to bring geothermal from niche to mainstream. And well take a look at leading goethermal startups Quaise, Fervo and Eavor to find out their progress and future plans.
