<p>Good article and information - one of the key points that gets lost in all the talk of buildout of alternative fuels and conversion to electrification is the infrastructure costs in rolling out an integrated system. The article alludes to carbon costs (read: taxation) for equalization to facilitate conversion and potential subsidy for capital projects, but the transportation and distribution costs involved also needs to be taken into account.</p>

<p>Good article and information - one of the key points that gets lost in all the talk of buildout of alternative fuels and conversion to electrification is the infrastructure costs in rolling out an integrated system.

<p>One advantage that the Gulf Coast has in this regard is an already established industrial and commercial infrastructure for industrial supply and process gasses, including NG, syngas, H2 and fractionated products. These established lines can function as rudimentary trunks as more substantial distribution apparatuses are implemented. Still, penetration of these systems beyond the industrial zones and into the large commercial and/or managed municipal systems will bear increased costs of safety systems necessary to provide minimal-risk access to such products to end users.</p>
