U. S. DOE opens $7 billion funding program for regional clean hydrogen hubs

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has opened applications for the $7 billion program to create regional clean hydrogen hubs (H2Hubs) across the country, as part of a larger $8 billion hydrogen hub program funded through President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

The H2Hubs program is launched to form a ‘critical arm’ of America’s future clean energy economy as it will be a central driver in helping communities across the country benefit from clean energy investments, good-paying jobs and improved energy security, U.S. DOE says.

At the same time, the H2Hubs are said to be one of the largest investments in DOE history.

For this initial funding opportunity launch, DOE is aiming to select six to ten hubs for a combined total of up to $7 billion in federal funding.

Concept papers are due by 7 November 2022 and full applications are due by 7 April 2023. Additional funding opportunities may follow to accelerate and expand the network of clean hydrogen projects.
