Three US hydrogen Hubs win DOE funding, with GTI Energy in the mix for all

In Washington, the U.S Department of Energy Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations has finalized phase 1 award agreements with the three hydrogen hubs in which GTI Energy plays a pivotal role – the HyVelocity Gulf Coast Hydrogen Hub, the Midwest Alliance for Clean Hydrogen Hub (MachH2), and the Appalachian Regional Clean Hydrogen Hub.

With the initial distribution of federal funding for phase 1, these hubs will catalyze the development of regional networks of clean hydrogen producers, consumers, and connective infrastructure while supporting the production, storage, delivery, and end-use of clean hydrogen. Together, these hubs are poised to reduce millions of metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions from end uses each year, create tens of thousands of good-paying jobs across the country, and bolster America’s energy security while fostering healthier, more sustainable communities.

The Community Benefits Plans that will be executed as part of the Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs ensure that the significant public and private investments drive measurable, positive outcomes for the communities these hubs serve. GTI Energy is proud to contribute to an effort that advances decarbonization, but also ensures a more equitable, accessible, and resilient energy future for all.

Reaction from the stakeholders

“GTI Energy is playing a pivotal role in the Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs, driving the deployment of hydrogen at a commercial scale to help decarbonize the economy and position the U.S. as a leader in clean hydrogen technology,” said Kristine Wiley, Vice President of Low Carbon Energy Solutions, GTI Energy. “These hubs will unlock market potential and create opportunities to build the essential infrastructure for low-carbon energy deployment, fostering sustainable growth and resilience in communities.”
