ACP Green Hydrogen Framework FAQ

The American Clean Power Association (ACP) provides this consensus framework, negotiated amongst our “big tent” diverse membership, based on the shared goal of supporting the development of the new green hydrogen industry in the United States while at the same time providing robust guardrails to ensure that it is both clean and green. The implementation of the clean hydrogen tax credit has sparked an intense debate among stakeholders over how best to incentivize the development of a stable, long-term green hydrogen market that supports decarbonization goals. This compromise framework offers a roadmap for effectively balancing the dual priorities of supporting early-market development of green hydrogen with maintaining a rigorous and robust standard for ensuring clean production. The proposal is the result of considerable deliberation, analysis, and interaction with leading member companies in the clean power and green hydrogen industries, environmental organizations, and other stakeholders over the last several months.
