ENERGY/ALTERNATE: Creates the Clean Hydrogen Task Force

This bill creates a Clean Hydrogen Task Force within the Louisiana Department of Energy and Natural Resources to oversee the state's clean hydrogen initiatives. The task force will be staffed by the office of energy if it is established by a separate bill in the 2024 session, or by the discretion of the department's secretary if that office does not exist. This measure organizes administrative oversight for clean hydrogen projects without specifying new funding or regulatory requirements.
