A Canadian environmental group is raising the alarm on new federal government spending on Canada’s hydrogen sector, calling it a waste of taxpayers’ money and a false solution to the climate crisis. Transporting hydrogen overseas is incredibly challenging and expensive – and has never been successfully done at scale.

The first challenge is to produce sufficient supply of renewable “green” hydrogen; the next is to be able to store it in large quantities; and then to establish the required infrastructure to trade and transport hydrogen. But transporting hydrogen over long distance is not efficient and does make much economic sense. No energy is lost.
