Hydrogen price transparency will help fuel a green revolution
Hydrogen has a crucial role in tackling the hard-to-decarbonise sectors. Price signals should help in targeting limited supplies and incentivise hydrogen production in low-cost countries.
Environmentalists such as former US vice-president Al Gore extol “the magic of markets” as a way to cut back green costs. There are efforts to establish a tradeable market in hydrogen, the fuel expected to play a big role in decarbonisation.
A hydrogen price index proposed by Deutsche Börse’s power and gas exchange EEX is an indication of rising interest.
