Industrial gas supplier Air Products announced it will build a $4.5 billion clean energy facility in Louisiana’s capital region, a project that Gov. John Bel Edwards said will help the state’s work to reduce carbon emissions in the petrochemical corridor.
The planned complex in Ascension Parish will produce “blue hydrogen,” which uses natural gas to produce an alternative fuel with the carbon dioxide emissions captured and stored underground. Air Products said the facility will create 170 permanent jobs and thousands of construction jobs to build the site over three years.
