@BashStKid And academics too. A lot of "investment" in hydrogen by research councils.

@sellathechemist That creates an indirect bias in research if the companies wave ‘industry matching funding’ at the councils, then highly likely if a dept proposes research in that area, it will get funded. Rather more suspect when the research proposals perfectly fit industry wishes to ensure the funding. Not to mention those earth science depts where senior positions are ‘supported’ by, say, BP.
