This is an an ad for VC funding. German companies have been using wind turbines to generate hydrogen to burn their furnaces for steel refining for years.

This process doesn't use Hydrogen. They briefly discuss the hydrogen powered steel process to cover the bases, but this is a different process.

As for the Ad allegation, I mean kinda, that's why the CEO agreed to the interview, but David Roberts just likes interviewing interesting innovators and policy leaders in the climate Tech space.
