The council aims to pave the way for stepped-up South Korean exports of hydrogen-related infrastructure as countries around the world chase environmentally friendly energy sources to combat climate change. But with Japanese and European players also making strides, it will need to promote rapid technological development to keep South Korea competitive.
INTERVIEW HIGHLIGHTS: • 75% CO2 emission saving threshold for clean hydrogen could have been “more ambitious” • Carbon content should be erected as “new currency” of EU’s emerging hydrogen market • Upcoming EU certification scheme must ensure that hydrogen is: traceable, trackable, tradeable, transparent, and trustworthy • “Additionality principle” currently prevents using curtailed wind energy for hydrogen production and must…
In the quest for a better future, keeping America competitive on hydrogen technology is the right bet.
