Yeah cause heavy industry loves paying premium for no monetary benefit...
This is why the Swedish government is currently out hundreds of millions of dollars in wasted investments in HYBRIT - a project where the government-owned steel mills are going to transition from burning coke to using wind-sourced hydrogen.
The main issue is that the annual hydrogen production is estimated to require KW hours equivalent to the annual usage of all of Finland.
A separate issue is that there is no demand on the market for more expensive steel that has no added benefit, aside from being "green".
For the low down on the scam of carbon of-setting
