Created by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs program will award up to $7 billion to establish 7 clean hydrogen hubs across the country.
A hydrogen hub is a network of producers, users, distributors and stakeholders within the hydrogen ecosystem.
Throughout the Mid-Atlantic region - which is home to nearly 4 million people and numerous manufacturing, chemical and bioscience companies - producers, distributors and users are not only internally connected via existing pipelines, but also link via existing regional pipelines to geographic locations beyond the tri-state area.
Success for MACH2 includes:
- Leveraging existing technology and infrastructure strengths within the region to generate clean hydrogen.
- Reusing and revitalizing existing pipeline infrastructure.
- Retaining and creating several thousand well-paying jobs through re-training, upskilling and talent pipeline building.
- Providing economic opportunities as well as health improvement for historically underserved communities.
- Positioning for future expansion and connectivity across a broader region and with other hydrogen hubs
"Bringing a hydrogen hub to Delaware and our region will support good-paying union jobs and help us fight climate change - a win-win. Clean hydrogen is the key to reducing emissions in the sectors of our economy, including industry and transportation, that are the hardest to decarbonize. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law supports the production and deployment of clean hydrogen and there isn't anywhere better in the world for a hydrogen hub than Delaware. The Mid-Atlantic Clean Hydrogen Hub proposal combines our region's biggest strengths - from our labor workforce and existing infrastructure to our large hydrogen production capacity and diverse demand across an array of industries - to make this an ideal location for a hydrogen hub."
US Sen. Tom Carper, Chairman Senate Environment and Public Works Committee
At MACH2, we realize that it will take leaders from energy, communications, transportation, labor and industry, as well as from educational and research institution, environmental justice organizations, and government offices to drive a successful hydrogen economy. We are just beginning to build out our ecosystem. Subscribe today to become a part of that ecosystem.
We are thrilled to announce that MACH2 and DESCA have partnered to offer the MACH2 Membership program. Join today, become a member of the hydrogen ecosystem, and join us for the first MACH2 Meet-Up on June 26th!
