There's huge potential for hydrogen but again a lot of challenges we still have to address production delivery storage and use cost performance. This is a critical time to make sure we get all those pieces right. We've been talking about hydrogen with Dr. Sunita Satya Paul from the US Department of Energy’s hydrogen and fuel cells technology office. Gloria Duffy is CEO of the Commonwealth Club of California the nonprofit and nonpartisan forum where our program originates. Please help us get people talking more about climate you can give us a rating or review or send a link to your friend.
Not long ago, it was said that “hydrogen is the fuel of the future - and always will be.” Now, with the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law tagging $9.5 billion for developing a domestic hydrogen economy, this simplest of all elements is increasingly being discussed as a viable pathway for long-distance trucking, shipping, and hard-to-decarbonize industries like cement and steel. But how clean is clean hydrogen, really? And what will it take to make green hydrogen a cost-competitive option in applications like manufacturing, transportation, and grid-scale energy storage?
