"Blue" Hydrogen relies on natural gas for its source fuel and requires carbon capture & storage technology. "Green" Hydrogen uses electricity and the source fuel can be wind, solar or hydro power; can be stored, does not require massive pipeline infrastructure and is truly net zero.
Canadian governments should think carefully, do their homework and consult with other leading jurisdictions before making major spending decisions on the new hydrogen economy. We will only get one chance to kick start innovation and investment in the right direction.
Canada has committed to net-zero emissions by 2050, so if “blue” hydrogen is not net zero, why use taxpayers money to subsidize a technology that distracts from achieving that goal and puts us offside with where the new hydrogen economy is headed?
