Tomorrow, the federal government is set to sign a new agreement with Germany to strategize on a “clean-energy transition,” with hydrogen expected to be a key player the Globe and Mail reports.
“Germany is probably the world’s most interesting market for hydrogen right now, and Canada is potentially a very big power in its production,” Sabine Sparwasser, Germany’s ambassador to Canada, said in an interview.
However, some friction is expected as Natural Resources Minister Seamus O’Regan has been endorsing “blue” hydrogen, while Germany has been more interested in “green” hydrogen.
