> The TL;DR to me is it's a complicated way to subsidise the hydrogen economy? I get that impression too. The widespread usage of gasoline for passenger cars has created lots of jobs: Driving trucks for gasoline transportation, maintaining pumping equipment, gas station attendants, etc. If these jobs disappear due to a switch to electric vehicles in addition to the jobs lost due to the lower maintenance costs of electric cars then it seems reasonable to assume that some companies or organizations will try to maintain the current infrastructure. Even if it requires a switch to hydrogen.
