Mitsubishi Power Americas, through its subsidiary MHI Hydrogen Infrastructure (MHI H2I), announces the recent signing of a subrecipient agreement between the Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Association (PNWH2) and MHI H2I’s Boardman Hydrogen Hub project. The PNWH2 Hub, one of the country’s seven regional hydrogen hubs aimed at decarbonizing the U.S. energy sector, continues to progress through Phase 1 of the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) H2Hubs Program. This milestone advances PNWH2’s objectives and movement toward the deployment of clean hydrogen infrastructure and technologies in the region.
The agreement marks the formalization of nearly two years of collaboration, further enabling MHI H2I’s project development efforts and allowing access to federal funding from the DOE’s Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED). MHI H2I intends to utilize industry-leading hydrogen technology and solutions from Mitsubishi Power Americas to further advance the hub’s development and adhere to the clean energy goals set forth by the DOE. The DOE’s investment in regional hydrogen hubs is one of the largest investments in the agency’s history – and will form the foundation of a national clean hydrogen network.
The PNWH2 Hub, comprised of eight groups of projects, also known as nodes, across Washington, Oregon and Montana, will leverage the region’s innovative technology and renewable energy to expand the use of clean hydrogen across multiple sectors. These projects aim to deliver promising solutions to reduce the carbon emissions of hard-to-decarbonize sectors of the economy like heavy-duty transportation, port operations, fertilizer and cement production, and power generation.
