Current status in the U.S. Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs program

Abstract

In the United States, the Department of Energy is promoting research and development on hydrogen production, supply, storage, fuel cells, and multiple end uses across the transportation, industrial, and power sectors. In addition, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) have been enacted as hydrogen support policies, and efforts are underway to establish a hydrogen supply chain through large-scale financial support. This report describes policy trends related to the “Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs (H2Hubs) Program,” for which development plans have been presented in various regions of the U.S., as well as the status of efforts in various regions of the U.S.
