Energy Harbor Corp., a provider of carbon-free baseload electricity, has joined forces with the University of Toledo, major industrial companies in the region, several DOE national laboratories and others to form a new industry-led coalition, Great Lakes Clean Hydrogen (GLCH).
The coalition aims to transition the Midwest into a leading low-carbon fuel production center, attracting major investment, new businesses and job creation.
“This industry-led Hydrogen Hub coalition intends to ensure that the Midwest is a leader in a decarbonization transition so that regional industries and supply chains are globally competitive and opportunities are created for workers and their communities,” said Frank Calzonetti, vice president for research at the University of Toledo.
Utilizing the carbon-free nuclear power generated by Energy Harbor's Davis-Besse Power Station, GLCH will produce clean hydrogen through water electrolysis aligned with the DOE's Hydrogen Shot goals
