In October 2021, the Energy Futures Initiative (EFI) convened a workshop to explore the concept of a clean hydrogen hub as an economic decarbonization pathway and driver of economic growth for North Carolina and South Carolina.| EFI Foundation
The potential for clean hydrogen as a low-carbon energy source is gaining momentum. Hydrogen is already produced at commercial scale for end uses in methanol production, ammonia production, and oil refining. Building an industry to supply clean hydrogen as a fuel for the energy sector could reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by up to 16% […]| EFI Foundation
