51% : One of the central tenets of the Biden administration's energy policy is the pursuit of "green" hydrogen, defined as hydrogen manufactured with zero carbon emissions.
50% : This push has involved $7 billion dollars in subsidies for the creation of Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs as well as significant tax breaks for hydrogen production through the Inflation Reduction Act.
50% : Because electrolysis, which involves running an electric current through water to break apart hydrogen and oxygen molecules, yields zero carbon emissions.
48% : First, we cannot create usable energy out of thin air.
