**(b) Requirements**
(1) **In general** — The standard developed under subsection (a) shall—
(A) support clean hydrogen production from each source described in [section 16154(e)(2) of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section16154/e/2&num=0&edition=prelim);
(B) define the term “clean hydrogen” to mean hydrogen produced with a carbon intensity equal to or less than 2 kilograms of carbon dioxide-equivalent produced at the site of production per kilogram of hydrogen produced; and
(C) take into consideration technological and economic feasibility.
(2) **Adjustment** — Not later than the date that is 5 years after the date on which the Secretary develops the standard under subsection (a), the Secretary, in consultation with the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency and after taking into account input from industry and other stakeholders, as determined by the Secretary, shall—
(A) determine whether the definition of clean hydrogen required under paragraph (1)(B) should be adjusted below the standard described in that paragraph; and
(B) if the Secretary determines the adjustment described in subparagraph (A) is appropriate, carry out the adjustment.

**(a) Definitions** In this section:
(1) **Additional services** — The term “additional services” means the provision of supplementary power, backup or standby power, maintenance power, or interruptible power to an electric consumer by an electric utility.
(2) **Waste heat to power system** — The term “waste heat to power system” means a system that generates electricity through the recovery of waste energy.
(3) **Other terms**
(A) *Purpa* — The terms “electric consumer”, “electric utility”, “interconnection service”, “nonregulated electric utility”, and “State regulatory authority” have the meanings given those terms in the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 ([16 U.S.C. 2601](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title16-section2601&num=0&edition=prelim) et seq.), within the meaning of title I of that Act ([16 U.S.C. 2611](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title16-section2611&num=0&edition=prelim) et seq.).
