Well... they are Elected Politicians who are trolling like teenagers because it gives them attention.
The law appears to have no teeth and be based on extremely stupid logic.

I think production will make impressive advances, but is there enough demand for green hydrogen to get a premium price over dirty hydrogen? Is there infrastructure to take advantage of arbitrage? In the near future (~5 years) IMO no.
We are kind of comparing Production Cost (in your first post) vs Market Price (in mine). The recent investments, I think, will reduce the marginal cost to produce enough to compete openly in the market. BUT there won't be a significant premium.
@justinmikulka yes, but Salt Caverns are not easily repeatable projects (at least that is my understanding)
They will be part of the solution, but will most likely be a case by case. Which, I guess, we could probably say about everything.
Everyone mocked my keeping old nissan leaf... now who is laughing for the first 50 miles.
@justinmikulka I get steel. But storage (also lifecycle efficiency) is critical for LDES?
It has been really hard to store H2. (in a way that can be easily repeatable) LDES may end up being case by case with hydrogen.
