Happy Thursday!
Back in October
2023 the U.S. Department of Energy Demonstration Office (OCED) H2Hubs Program picked
Houston’ HyVelocity Hub as one of
seven awardees for federal grants. Check out of our past Blogs for details and information
about HyVelocity Hub and its members. Well, finally after a year of
talks the H2Hubs Program has signed a deal with HyVelocity Hub.
Did anyone
happen to read The Houston Chronicle’s The 713 Evening Newsletter on November
20, 2024, their article titled, “Biden administration inks deal to develop a
$1.2 billion hydrogen hub in Houston.”?
In the article, it speaks about HyVelocity Hub have signed by the
X for federal funds on Wednesday for up to $1.2 billion. HyVelocity Hub was chosen over a year
ago to become one of seven clean hydrogen hubs in the U.S. and the money to
help advance it will be starting to flow. Houston and the Gulf Coast isn’t a stranger to
producing blue hydrogen, nonetheless it wants to be a leader in producing clean
or green hydrogen and the influx of federal funds will help make it a
reality. Now HyVelocity Hub and
its team may begin implementing its plan, and recently members of Houston’s
Business Community met with potential Asian buyers. HyVelocity Hub members will either be
capturing their emissions and storing it under the Gulf of Mexico (GOM), and/or
they plan to construct wind- and solar-powered hydrogen plants that will use
water to produce hydrogen through electrolysis. We wish HyVelocity Hub luck in implementing
their ambitious plan! If we hear
anything else, we will let you know! If
