The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced $20 million in funding for technology that will produce clean hydrogen energy from nuclear power. This approach will allow clean hydrogen to serve as a source for zero-carbon electricity and represent an important economic product for nuclear plants beyond electricity.
The project, led by PNW Hydrogen LLC, will receive $12 million from the DOE’s Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technologies Office and $8 million from DOE’s Office of Nuclear Energy. The project will produce clean hydrogen from nuclear power at the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station in Phoenix, AZ.
