a Houston CCS hub, which aims to
capture and store up to 50 MMtpy of
CO2
and 100 MMtpy of CO2 by 2030
and 2040, respectively.
FID on both projects is scheduled
for 2024/2025.
Consortium signs MoU
for GW-scale green fuels hub
on Texas Gulf Coast
A consortium consisting of EPIC
Midstream Holdings, Apex Clean Energy,
Ares Management Corp. and the Port of
Corpus Christi have singed a nonbinding
MoU to explore the development of a
green fuels hub at the Port of Corpus
Christi, Texas. The project will consist of
green H2
and fuels production, storage,
transportation, pipelines and export
operations.
EPIC is considering leveraging its
pipeline and construction expertise to
develop new green fuels pipelines. Apex
plans to use its wind and solar projects
to produce green H2
to produce green fuels.
to power facilities
ABB to electrify two green H2
plants in North America
Plug Power has awarded ABB two
contracts to supply electrical systems
for two green H2
production of 60 tpd.
At the Genesee County plant, ABB
will install a full electrical system
plants. The plants, to
be built in Genesee County, New York
and Peachtree, Georgia, will have a total
H2
encased in the company's eHouse
solution, a prefabricated, walk-in,
modular outdoor substation hosting
a range of electrical, automation and
ancillary equipment to provide power
to the site. ABB will also provide supply
gas and air insulated switchgear lowvoltage
motor control centers, along
with low-voltage variable speed drives
for auxiliary applications. The Peachtree
plant plans to have a similar package.
The H2
be used for logistics and transportation
sectors, enabling users to replace fossil
fuels in on-road applications such as
heavy-duty freight vehicles and forklifts.
Air Products invests to
decarbonize California's
transportation sector
Air Products plans to build, own and
operate a 10-tpd liquid H2 facility in Casa
Grande, Arizona. The facility will use
two thyssenkrupp nucera electrolyzers
to produce gaseous H2
, which will
be converted into liquid H2
using Air
Products' proprietary technology. The
liquid H2
will be sold into the California
mobility market as a zero-carbon fuel.
California has taken several steps to
decarbonize its transportation sector.
These goals include having drayage
trucks emit zero emissions by 2035 and
having heavy-duty vehicles convert to
zero emissions by 2045.
Air Products' facility is scheduled to
begin operations in 2023.

Hydrogen City, Texas: A world-scale H2

Ørsted enters U.S. Power-to-X
market with landmark green
fuels agreement
Ørsted plans to develop a Powerhub
Green
Hydrogen International is planning develop Hydrogen City, Texas, an
integrated green H2 production, storage and transport hub. The H2
hub will be
powered by 60 GW of solar and wind power to produce more than 2.5 MMkg/y
of green H2
The project is centered around a H2 storage facility in the Piedras Pintas salt
dome in Duval County, Texas. Pipelines will deliver green H2 to Corpus Christi and
Brownsville where it will be converted into green ammonia, sustainable aviation
fuel and other products, or delivered by pipeline directly to H2
power plants and
other users around the state.
The project's first phase is scheduled to commence in 2026. It consists of 2 GW
of production and two storage caverns at the Piedras Pintas salt dome. Eventually,
more than 50 caverns can be created in the area, providing up to 6 TWh of energy
storage and turning the dome into a major green H2
storage hub.
Green Hydrogen International is also exploring the opportunity to export green
ammonia to Asia, such as Japan. Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry
plans to add 30 MMtpy of renewable ammonia to the country's energy mix by 2050.

to-X facility along the U.S. Gulf Coast to
fuel Maersk's newly ordered fleet of 12
methanol-powered vessels. The 675MW
facility will produce approximately
300,000 tpy of e-methanol. The facility
will be powered by 1.2 GW of renewable
energy from onshore wind and solar PV
farms. The biogenic carbon needed to
produce e-methanol will be extracted
through carbon capture at one of more
large point sources.
FID on the project is expected to be
made in late 2023. If greenlighted, the
project is scheduled to be commissioned
in late 2025. The e-methanol will be sold
to Maersk. The project is part of Ørsted's
goal of building 50 GW of renewable
energy capacity by 2030.
