Mitsubishi Power, a leading player in the development of clean energy infrastructure projects and hydrogen technology, is making strides towards a cleaner energy future in the United States. The company has recently been involved in two hydrogen hub deals that aim to advance the use of hydrogen as a decarbonization solution.
In response to the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) call for hydrogen-based decarbonization solutions, Mitsubishi Power is a sub-recipient in two hydrogen hubs that have been selected for award negotiations with the DOE Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations. These hydrogen hubs, known as the Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Hub (PNWH2) and the HyVelocity Hub in the Gulf Coast region, will play a crucial role in the transition to clean energy and the achievement of a net-zero carbon economy by 2050.
The PNWH2 aims to establish a national clean hydrogen network by funding multiple projects that accelerate the production and use of clean hydrogen energy. This hub will create a dynamic network of clean, renewable hydrogen suppliers and end-users in the Pacific Northwest, targeting sectors such as heavy-duty transportation, aviation, maritime, agriculture, and industrial operations.
On the other hand, the HyVelocity Hub plans to scale up clean hydrogen supply and demand along the U.S. Gulf Coast, particularly in Texas and Southwest Louisiana. This region already boasts the largest concentration of existing hydrogen production assets, customers, and energy infrastructure, making it an ideal location for a clean hydrogen hub. The goal of the HyVelocity Hub is to deliver affordable, reliable, and abundant clean energy while creating well-paying jobs for local communities.
Mike Ducker, the Senior Vice President of Hydrogen Infrastructure at Mitsubishi Power Americas, emphasized the significance of these hydrogen hub projects. He highlighted how the public and private sectors are increasingly supporting the hydrogen economy, and Mitsubishi Power’s expertise in hydrogen infrastructure positions the company as a key contributor to the development of cleaner, carbon-free projects.
By participating in these hydrogen hub initiatives, Mitsubishi Power is further strengthening its commitment to a sustainable energy future. The company’s contributions to the development of world-class hydrogen hubs in the U.S. will not only support the transition to clean energy but also stimulate economic growth and job creation. Mitsubishi Power’s efforts align with President Biden’s broader clean energy goals and pave the way for a greener and more sustainable future.
