Welcome to Innovation Nation on Career Buzz. Hi! I’m [Stephen Armstrong]. I’m pleased to be your host today on “Innovation Nation” on Career Buzz. Innovation Nation explores the intersection of the real-world business practice and peoples career development. We will explore how individuals turn their personal passion for innovation into tangible commercial success. Thank you for tuning in this morning.

Today on your show our topic is: “Oil and gas are in a competition with electrics, hydrogen and SCF (sustainable combustion fuels)”. For decades oil and gas were really the only choice for transportation and energy – heat, etc but it appears to be changing to a scenario where oil and gas are in a competition with electrics, hydrogen and sustainable combustion fuels (SCF).
