PNWH2 is requesting information on potential projects aimed at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Hydrogen Hub (H2Hubs) opportunity. The H2Hubs opportunity is aimed at building several regional network[s] of clean hydrogen producers, potential clean hydrogen consumers, and connective infrastructure. This request for information aims to collect information about all potential projects in the Northwest that should be considered in the development of the initial proposal.

Submissions may include projects, programs, studies, demonstration projects and relevant services. PNWH2 anticipates a final H2Hubs proposal which primarily funds infrastructure projects ready to scale, but could be complemented by programs, studies and other investments that will help to reduce risk associated with infrastructure investments that reduce emissions in hard to decarbonize sectors over the longer term.

PNWH2 will evaluate candidate submissions based on their fit with the DOE’s guidance on the H2Hubs Notice of Intent, potential contribution to a larger network aimed clean hydrogen deployment, Washington’s 2021 State Energy Strategy, and other program objectives.
