Why wait to account for hydrogen’s warming impact in standards & policies when it will cost more later?
As the world works towards deploying a cleaner energy future, governments and industry are investing in building a hydrogen economy to replace high greenhouse gas emitting energy sources in critical hard to decarbonize sectors. But as we prepare to deploy hydrogen at scale, we must ensure that our standards and policies are rooted in the latest science. Otherwise, we risk undermining the very climate benefits we seek.
