Hydrogen — Made in America, For America
Summary
The RMI report 'Hydrogen — Made in America, For America' argues that the United States must accelerate the development of its hydrogen market to maintain global energy leadership and expand its industrial base. It identifies fragmented policies and poor economics in offtake sectors as primary barriers to growth and suggests specific federal and state policy actions to stimulate demand and investment.
Key insights
- The US hydrogen industry is experiencing slow scaling and headwinds, which risks the country falling behind other nations that are actively establishing supply chains and markets.
- Growth in the domestic hydrogen market is being stalled by weak demand, which is attributed to fragmented policies and challenging economics across various domestic offtake sectors.
- To accelerate market development and secure energy leadership, the report recommends that federal and state policymakers retain existing federal incentives, develop the exports market, increase demand-side incentives for hydrogen and its derivatives, and improve infrastructure policy supports.
