Kilogram-by-kilogram approach for determining the carbon intensity of qualified clean hydrogen
The section 45v tax credit should be awarded using a two-step approach for determining lifecycle emissions.
-
Fixed upstream emission rates undermine the climate benefits of section 45V hydrogen production tax credit
U.S. Treasury Department’s proposed fixed rates are both over- and under-inclusive of true upstream emissions.
