But with the recent influx of government incentives for hydrogen production, new and improving production and storage technologies, and greater political will than ever before, H 2 ’s reputation is gaining favor. But for many of these use-cases, hydrogen doesn’t do the job particularly well, at least as compared to existing technology.
