This selection enables Atlas Agro to enter award negotiations with OCED and work in partnership to establish the Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Hub. OCED funding will support Atlas Agro’s participation in the Hydrogen Hub through the advancement of planning, detailed design, environmental permitting, and procurement of long-lead equipment.
The Department of Energy's Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs (H2Hubs) will kickstart a national network of clean hydrogen producers, consumers, and connective infrastructure while supporting the production, storage, delivery, and end-use of clean hydrogen. Funded by President Biden's Investing in America agenda, the H2Hubs will accelerate the commercial-scale deployment of clean hydrogen—helping generate clean, dispatchable power, create a new form of energy storage, and decarbonize heavy industry and transportation. Together, they will also reduce 25 million metric tons of carbon dioxide) emissions from end-uses each year—an amount roughly equivalent to combined annual emissions of 5.5 million gasoline-powered cars—and create tens of thousands of good-paying jobs across the country while supporting healthier communities and strengthening America's energy security.
Atlas Agro's Pacific Green Fertilizer project in Richland, WA is set to be a game-changer. Using just air, water, and renewable energy, the project will produce zero-carbon nitrogen fertilizer. This innovation aims to:
This initiative is not just about fertilizer; it's about creating a more sustainable and resilient agricultural sector while actively combating climate change.
