It seems like there is a push for hydrogen in Europe in the last months, and a lot of it seems coming from the big energy companies.

Could be they are trying to find a way to get a piece of the European pandemic recovery funds, which are going mainly to "green" projects?

There is a huge effort from natural gas companies to make hydrogen acceptable.

In my opinion any fossil fuel hydrogen should be banned, or at least taxed at far higher rates than current carbon taxes.

We need electrolyzed hydrogen for industry, and we should make sure it's the cheapest option so that we don't have a market failure again.
