• A leaked internal document indicates roughly 300 projects could be terminated, including five of seven federally backed hydrogen hubs.
• The prospective cuts would follow about $7.6 billion canceled last week and $3.7 billion earlier this year.
• DOE spokesperson Ben Dietderich said no further decisions have been made, while Secretary Chris Wright signaled more cancellations this fall in both red and blue states.
