Lord Markham (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 19 November 2025

Debate

Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Industry

Contribution

Following on from the point made by the noble Baroness, Lady Walmsley, US and European industries have a very simple tax incentive and subsidy plan to encourage domestic production of clean hydrogen, and their industries are responding as a result. By contrast, we have quite a clever but complicated and opaque system, which means that we are not seeing the same level of UK hydrogen production or equipment. Do we have any plans to review our system to learn the lessons from best practice around the world?
