You're raising a really important challenge in that, unlike electricity where the value chain has existed for 100 years or more, in the hydrogen sector, generally speaking, at least in Atlantic Canada, the hydrogen supply chain does not exist yet. In order to develop a project, at minimum you need hydrogen production. Then you need a way to transport the hydrogen from the point of production to the point of end use. We've already talked about the importance of trying to make that distance as short as possible. If it's going into the transportation sector, then you need refuelling stations to put the hydrogen into the vehicles, and then you may also need hydrogen storage.
It's complex and expensive, and you have to build every link of that value chain simultaneously. You can't put a truck on the road using hydrogen either in a dual-fuel vehicle or in a fuel cell until you build that entire value chain. It is one of the biggest challenges the sector faces, globally and here.
