The $1 trillion infrastructure package, which passed with bipartisan support on Tuesday , includes $8 billion to develop “clean hydrogen” via the creation of four new regional hubs. Blue hydrogen involves splitting gas into hydrogen and carbon dioxide, and then capturing and storing the CO2 to ensure it doesn’t heat the planet.
