Invenergy has unveiled plans to build its first green-hydrogen project, to be located in Illinois.
The five-acre Sauk Valley Hydrogen project will generate as much as 52 tons hydrogen annually by using power from Invenergy’s co-located solar plant and Ohmium International low-carbon, electrolyzer technology.
The project, located in Illinois, will have capacity to store as much as 400 kilograms of hydrogen on site and can provide hydrogen to Invenergy’s 584-megawatt Nelson Energy Center. Sauk Valley’s loading capability will enable any excess hydrogen generated at the facility to be shipped and used offsite.
“Green hydrogen is an innovative, zero-carbon solution that enables us to decarbonize sectors across the economy through clean power,” said Matt Nicholls, vice president, origination new technologies at Invenergy. “Green hydrogen projects can scale rapidly and efficiently to reach megawatt to gigawatt applications. We are proud to be working with
