Boosting hydrogen sounds pretty awesome to me

A bunch of jokers. In NL they’ll start charging people with solar panels for generating excess energy. 🤡 🌍

Like taxes on the energy delivered to the grid?

I would argue taxes are worse since you can’t opt out, having to pay for excess energy generation hopefully will incentivize people to go off grid and opt out.
