4) Recent gov’t related reports about hydrogen strategy:
a) Gov’t of Canada: HYDROGEN STRATEGY FOR CANADA – Seizing the Opportunities for Hydrogen A Call to Action, Dec 2020
5) Articles about growth of hydrogen sector:
a) CNBC recently reported that “Hydrogen is at a ‘tipping point’ with $11 trillion market set to explode, says Bank of America”. This is likely because so many large companies are committing to Net-Zero emissions, which is creating considerable increased demand for hydrogen related technologies and services. For example, the number of net zero pledges has doubled in less than a year, including more than 1,500 companies with a combined revenue of more than $11.4 trillion. ore than 1,500 companies.b) Hydrogen’s high stakes for Canada BY SHAWN MCCARTHY, November 13, 2020 Related Corp.
