The passing of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), and especially the new 45V tax credit for hydrogen production, demonstrates the United States\u2019s commitment to combatting climate change. With billions of dollars at stake, we\u2019ve seen a great deal of disagreement about how the credit should be implemented. Plug\u2019s principal R&D engineer, Dr. Luke Wentlent, sat down with Dr. Jack Brouwer, a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at the University of California Irvine sat down to discuss the topic. Below is an excerpt for their conversation edited for length and clarity. If you\u2019d like to listen to the full conversation, go here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
