Subject | LCFS Credits Affecting Light Duty Hydrogen Stations |
Comment | I am merely a fuel cell EV owner and, unfortunately, the technicalities of the LCFS rules are over my head. However, I do understand that the current regulations are the cause of the high prices at the light duty hydrogen stations as well as the pause/stoppage in the construction of new stations. I have been one of the lucky few FCEV drivers over the past 6-1/2 years who have been able to ride the ups and downs of the hydrogen infrastructure. There were slow improvements and expansion being made, but it wasn't until the price of hydrogen increased did the sales of FCEVs start to drop as well as the stoppage of station construction. I am now very concerned that without changes to the LCFS regulations the expansion and improvements made since 2015 will all be for naught and light duty hydrogen stations will not survive. Please do not throw away all the work of the past 10+ years. Please do not emphasize heavy duty stations over light duty stations as both are important. Please do not let bio-diesel or any other renewable carbon producing fuels overthrow the future of a truly clean fuel that is hydrogen. Regards, Bruce Hata |
