What was perceived as the aftermath of the just concluded North American Leaders' summit in Mexico City this week.

As per a White House Report, President Biden and his Mexican counterpart President Lopez Obrador while in tow of the Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau "Committed to combatting the climate crisis" by working together in methane emissions' reduction, electrical vehicles chargers and hydrogen

The three heads are also vouching for a potential cooperation on research and development, safety codes and standards cross border hydrogen clusters, green freight corridors and integrated maritime operations "what an excellent move"

What come from Trudeau's Cabinet wasn't clear as it explained that the agreement was "Committing to trilateral discussions on the potential for developing A North American hydrogen market including potential cooperation on research and development, safety codes and standards"

The paper stated further that "Hydrogen will be an essential part of North America energy mix in a net-zero future."

The Mexicans Three Amigos meeting merely stated that :"We will explore standards to develop hydrogen as a regional clean energy source."

Both Countries are  to officially sign off on H2 Subsidies this year , Unravelling an investment spree.
