To my mind the question asked according to the piece, "Is 'green hydrogen' dead?" Is something of a joke, since it's absurd to argue that 'green hydrogen' was ever a viable entity except as a marketing tool to greenwash fossil fuels.

If the fossil fuel funded marketing effort to brand fossil fuel products as "green hydrogen," which includes the slick videos we see here about hydrogen, is defunded by the fossil fuel companies, we can be spared them, which in my view wouldn't be a bad thing.
