The article discusses the testimony provided by Julie McNamara at the Pennsylvania House Environmental Resources and Energy Committee's hearing on 'Hydrogen Hubs and Climate Change.' Pennsylvania is home to two out of seven hydrogen hubs selected for the nation's $7 billion Hydrogen Hubs Program, giving the state a significant role in shaping the US hydrogen industry. The testimony highlighted the importance of aligning hydrogen policies with the clean energy transition to ensure truly clean production and usage. The Union of Concerned Scientists emphasized the need for rigorous environmental, health, and safety standards in hydrogen production to prevent potentially disastrous outcomes that could reverse climate and public health gains. It was noted that policymakers should avoid taking shortcuts and instead focus on setting strong signals from the outset to drive investments towards clean hydrogen initiatives. Additionally, the article delved into the two main hydrogen production methods: electrolytic and fossil-based. Policies advocating for clean hydrogen production tax credits and promoting clean hydrogen production approaches were discussed, while highlighting the pitfalls of fossil-based hydrogen production, especially through methods like steam methane reforming. The article stresses the importance of getting hydrogen policy right by selecting truly clean production approaches and avoiding investments in projects that could become stranded assets in the future.
