NEW YORK (Reuters) – Investor and philanthropist Bill Gates said at a virtual conference on Monday that cheap green hydrogen would be a “huge deal” in helping the energy transition.
Gates also spoke about the so-called green premium, in which greener technologies sell at a premium to traditional materials or petroleum-based fuels.
“The green premium is the metric that says are you on your way to success in 2050?” Gates said at IHS Markit’s CERAWeek.
