Listen "Danger Zone - Changes to 45V Tax Credit Would Deal a Major Blow to Low-Carbon Hydrogen"

Episode Synopsis

The U.S. outlook for low-carbon hydrogen was bright and sunny just a year or two ago, with billions in federal funding and policy support, but to no one’s surprise, things have darkened considerably this year.
