Hydrogen Infrastructure Finance: Supporting Clean Energy and Job Creation
This Act establishes a pilot program to support the development of hydrogen transportation and storage infrastructure, potentially reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Citizens may benefit from new job creation, the development of cleaner energy sources, and potentially lower energy costs in the future. The program provides grants and loans for hydrogen projects, prioritizing those that minimize environmental impact and benefit low-income communities.
