H2 Sage™ Hydrogen Strategic Briefings The email newsletter you're currently reading primarily focuses on liquid hydrogen (LH2) systems. However, it's important to have an understanding of how LH2 fits within the rapidly evolving overall hydrogen economy and its trajectory. Many outlets provide excellent news coverage in the global hydrogen space. Likewise, market analysis of varying depth, scope, and price provide financial and competitive industry information. However, strategic insights that synthesize everything and analyze the implications are harder to find without a contractual engagement with qualified experts.  To address this gap, I recently launched a new LinkedIn newsletter that covers this bigger picture on a weekly basis. The core content is generated using the H2 Sage™ AI tool developed by Moran Innovation LLC. It is aggregated and synthesized from broadly sourced top ranking hydrogen news for the past week. The Sage Signal highlights are written solely by me and represent my personal analysis and perspective. If you are a LinkedIn user, you can read and subscribe to these weekly briefings for free by clicking on the button below. A brief audio summary is also included for a quick listen if you prefer. Subscribe H2 Sage™ Updates   Have added a few new things and did some reorganizing on the H2 Sage™ site to hopefully make it easier to find what you're looking for. Here's a breakdown of the current structure and contents: Hydrogen News, Insights, Strategies, and Tactics H2 Sage™ hydrogen strategic briefing (weekly) Global liquid hydrogen systems group (LinkedIn) LH2 Era™ blog (usually several posts per month) YouTube channel (video playlists and new podcast) Interactive Online Tools Dewar sizing app inner vessel capacity insulation system heat leak sources  Hydrogen Applications Decarbonizing mobility with LH2 Anthropocene Workforce training Grids & microgrids Aviation Liquid Hydrogen Introduction Safety Fundamentals Tankage Storage Transfer Sensors Modeling Systems Strategy Wrap-up LH2 survey Sloshing analysis Cryogenic Fluid Management guide Other Resources Click on the button below to have a look.   H2 Sage™ Site LH2 Era™ Blog Leveraging AI for Hydrogen Projects   "After the last newsletter, received some great feedback and questions from several readers about the article on assessing AI for a hydrogen microgrid project. To provide some additional context and details, this post is a scrubbed version of the AI section of my final report for the project. Hopefully it's of some interest to others who may be charting these waters..."   Armchair Rocketeers and Their Hydrogen Misconceptions   "Liquid hydrogen (LH2) related news this week saw heavy coverage on the Artemis II mission fueling tests that NASA performed on the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket. Called a wet dress rehearsal, these tests involve loading the SLS with LH2 and liquid oxygen (LOx) on the launch pad to check out various systems and operations before clearing the rocket for launch..."   The Mobility Space Race: 7 Surprising Truths About LH2   LH2 Era™ Site Events and News Energy Storage & Deployment Pathways  March 14, 2026   "In this session, we'll explore: • Practical deployment pathways for hydrogen systems • The evolving role of battery technologies in grid stability • Integration challenges and investment realities • What emerging markets must prioritize to scale energy storage..."    Other Upcoming Events April 3, 2026: Aerospace Graduate Seminar guest speaker, University of Cincinnati.
