One of the most consequential climate decisions is playing out at...the IRS.
The IRA includes generous, uncapped clean hydrogen tax credits: 45V.
Done right, these $100s of billions in tax credits could be the biggest boon for the U.S. hydrogen industry and for clean electricity ever.
Done wrong, they could be a boondoggle larger than corn ethanol, driving emissions up, not down.

"A group of European nations wanted the report to say that solar and wind electricity “is now cheaper than energy from fossil fuels in many regions”.
Saudi Arabia “strongly opposed inclusion of the sentence”.
The Bahamas’ representative called for the report to say specifically that #CCS technology, unlike wind and solar, is not getting cheaper.
But Saudi Arabia pushed back, saying that CCS and #CDR are “in fact unavoidable”. "
