Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Hub Formalizes Agreement with Mitsubishi Hydrogen Infrastructure
(P&GJ) — Mitsubishi Power Americas, through its subsidiary MHI Hydrogen Infrastructure (MHI H2I), has signed a subrecipient agreement with the Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Association (PNWH2) as part of efforts to develop the Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Hub.
The agreement enables MHI H2I’s Boardman Hydrogen Hub project to access federal funding under the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) H2Hubs Program, a major initiative to decarbonize the U.S. energy sector.
“This important step solidifies our position in the PNWH2 Hub and underscores our strong commitment to advancing the hydrogen economy in the U.S.,” said Scott Neumeister, Director of Regional Business Development, MHI Hydrogen Infrastructure. “The Pacific Northwest is poised to serve as a national benchmark for successful low-carbon intensity and economically viable green hydrogen production.”
The PNWH2 Hub, one of seven regional hydrogen hubs under development, spans Washington, Oregon, and Montana. It aims to reduce carbon emissions in hard-to-decarbonize sectors, such as heavy-duty transportation, fertilizer production, and power generation. The hub consists of eight project groups, or "nodes," leveraging the region’s renewable energy resources and innovative technology.
MHI H2I leads Node 6, which focuses on hydrogen production through electrolysis and clean dispatchable electricity generation using turbines capable of running on 100% hydrogen. The project includes hydrogen storage, a hydrogen pipeline, and hydrogen delivery to Node 3 for liquefaction and use in heavy-duty transportation.
Chris Green, President of the Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Association, highlighted the importance of partnerships in advancing the hub’s goals. “Formalizing our project subrecipient agreements marks a significant step in laying the groundwork for the Hub’s development, putting us on the path to achieving our goal of establishing the Pacific Northwest as a leader in bringing new energy manufacturing jobs to our region,” he said.
The DOE’s H2Hubs Program, funded by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, is one of the largest clean energy investments in U.S. history. The program aims to establish a national hydrogen network, supporting clean energy jobs, energy storage, and decarbonization across industries.
