New York has awarded more than $11 million to five clean hydrogen research and development (R&D) projects aimed at demonstrating newer technological designs, reducing costs in the storage and distribution of clean hydrogen, and deploying hydrogen-powered transportation. The funded projects include over $220,000 for geological studies on hydrogen storage potential by GTI Energy, $2 million to National Grid Ventures for the installation of a 100 per cent hydrogen-fuelled linear generator at its Northport power plant in Fort Salonga, and $2 million for the co-development of new hydrogen distribution trailers using cryo-compressed storage technologies by Plug Power in partnership with Verne.

In addition, Stony Brook University has been allocated more than $4.9 million for a low-pressure hydrogen storage system at the Staten Island University Hospital – North Campus, operated by Northwell Health, to enhance healthcare system resilience. Another $2 million will support the development of New York’s first hydrogen fuel cell-electric ferry for zero-emission waterway transport by SWITCH Maritime LLC.
The projects have been funded through the New York state’s $6 billion Clean Energy Fund, which spans a 10-year period. They were selected under the Advanced Fuels and Thermal Energy Research Programme, which supports clean fuel innovation to decarbonise industrial processes, integrate renewable energy with clean fuel production, and strengthen grid reliability.
