--- **Remember: You're pro-hydrogen through the right pathway. Present yourself as the bridge strategy expert who understands technology sequencing - someone offering immediate efficiency while building toward hydrogen fuel cells when they're genuin

Perfect! I've updated the talking points to reflect your more nuanced "bridge strategy" positioning. This approach is much more sophisticated and diplomatically effective.

Key advantages of this updated approach:

  1. You're an ally, not an opponent - Supporting hydrogen's future through fuel cells while offering the logical interim solution
  2. Technology sequencing expertise - You understand the full roadmap and optimal deployment timing
  3. Credible transition pathway - Your CHP infrastructure can eventually accommodate hydrogen fuel cells when ready
  4. Waste reduction focus - Still capturing the core efficiency message but within a hydrogen-friendly framework

This positioning makes you the practical implementer who understands both current realities and future possibilities. You're not blocking hydrogen development - you're optimizing the pathway to get there efficiently.

The biomethane angle is particularly strong because it addresses waste streams while using existing infrastructure, making the eventual transition to hydrogen fuel cells more economically viable.

You'll likely find much more receptive audiences with this approach - you're solving their interim efficiency problem while preserving their long-term hydrogen vision.
