In New York, WRGB reported that the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) has announced the availability of $3.7 million to support clean hydrogen-based fuel cell resources in New York. The report noted that this initiative aims to advance the development and demonstration of innovative fuel cell technologies to enhance grid reliability, decarbonize industrial processes, and integrate renewable energy sources such as wind and solar. The funding is part of a competitive solicitation through NYSERDA’s Advanced Fuels and Thermal Energy Storage Program. It seeks proposals from qualified teams, including engineering, procurement, and construction firms, clean hydrogen fuel suppliers, and power generation asset operators, to develop designs for clean hydrogen-based fuel cell solutions, the report added. The phase one of the project will award up to $250,000 for initial scoping efforts, including design evaluation and cost analysis. Phase two will involve detailed assessments, including engineering design work and community engagement plans.
