The sooner the better. Globally, developments of national Hydrogen industries are moving quickly and Australia should be at the forefront - we do not want to miss this important opportunity. Plus, if Australia can be perceived as a global leader in developing an industry with accompanying excellent certification scheme, then this provides entree into new markets and possibilities for Australia to influence standards in other countries developing their hydrogen industries or perhaps even globally.
