Charbone Hydrogen Corporation has taken a momentous step. The company, which is fast emerging as a key player in hydrogen production, has executed a “Design and Build” construction agreement with one of Quebec’s largest construction giants, EBC. This strategic agreement, dated October 13, 2023, is poised to revolutionize the hydrogen landscape.

In a fierce national competition to secure a slice of $7 billion in grant funding to advance “green” hydrogen projects, the Pacific Northwest, represented by Oregon and Washington, emerged as one of the seven winners, each receiving roughly $1 billion in Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs grant funding.

Battelle announced that following a highly competitive evaluation process, the Appalachian Regional Clean Hydrogen Hub (ARCH2) consortium was selected by the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED) to enter the award negotiation phase to establish a clean hydrogen hub (H2Hub) in Appalachia.

Port of Long Beach has announced a substantial financial boost of up to $300 million to facilitate the development of a hydrogen fuel hub. This funding is part of the up to $1.2 billion allocation granted to California by the U.S. Department of Energy, marking one of the largest investments in the Department’s history.

Stadler and the state of California have inked a transformative contract. The agreement solidifies Stadler’s commitment to building four cutting-edge hydrogen-powered trainsets for California, with an option for an additional 25 trains—a deal that holds the potential to reshape rail travel in the state.
