Some critics say the projects are costly ‘experiments’ that will do little to cut greenhouse gases.

Adding 10% hydrogen was perfectly normal in Germany for decades, since hydrogen was a waste product of many industrial processes.
The question is: how the fuck is hydrogen supposed to be an economical solution? It's really really expensive and burning it in a stove isn't exactly efficient.
Especially as renewable energy costs continue to decline in the future, it's hard to believe hydrogen will be competitive with electrification.
As energy costs decrease, so does the biggest expense in electrolysis
True, but I still can't see delivering it directly to homes as ever being viable (other than a delay tactic). As long term storage? Yeah, that may happen.
