Hydrogen economy requires public laws
According to the 2020 Global Gas Report by Snam, the International Gas Union and also BloombergNEF, public policies are required to sustain clean hydrogen reach commercial clusters and to facilitate large-scale use. The authors of the report recognized the benefits of using wind and solar to directly power electrolysis, but they do not dispose of the opportunity of using gas power with carbon capture storage space. The professionals of the three celebrations also identified barriers to get rid of for future development.
