Inside the fight to shape clean hydrogen
Clean energy advocates and green groups are fighting over how the Treasury Department should implement the Inflation Reduction Act’s clean hydrogen tax credit, which offers billions of dollars in federal incentives to companies that produce hydrogen in a climate-conscious way. The Biden administration believes investing in the nascent clean hydrogen industry could be a political and climate win, but their bet depends on how the tax credit is shaped. POLITICO’s Kelsey Tamborrino breaks down the debate over the credit and why clean hydrogen is so important to the Biden administration. Kelsey Tamborrino is a reporter covering clean energy. Josh Siegel is a congressional energy reporter for POLITICO. Nirmal Mulaikal is a POLITICO audio host-producer. Annie Rees is a senior audio producer-host at POLITICO.
