most hydrogen is produced from natural gas unfortunately :(

    It is currently. But cheap renewable energy makes renewable hydrogen a more viable option.

    it's currently about 5x the cost to produce so i think some other incentives are probably needed as well...

    Currently, but a large part of that cost is due to energy prices. If you have cheaper energy, or periods of excess energy that bring the cost down to/near zero, that is what brings down the cost.

    if only we actually got there... here the prices have been climbing more and more the more wind turbines we install because of grid instability.

    honestly a great pilot area for energy storage.

    Variable tariffs are an option here and can give you periods of very cheap, free or even negative cost energy.
