WV Submits Official Proposal to Get Federal $2B Hydrogen Hub

Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia are all scrambling to form working groups or other alliances in an attempt to be THE state chosen for one of four regional hydrogen hubs funded by the recently passed so-called Biden infrastructure bill (see WV, OH, PA Compete Against Each Other to Attract $2B Hydrogen Hub). The new law provides $8 billion for four regional hydrogen hubs. It’s a safe bet one of those hubs will be located in either PA, OH, or WV. Out of the gate early in the race is WV. On Monday WV's U.S. Senators Shelley Moore Capito and Joe Manchin, along with Congressman David McKinley and Governor Jim Justice, submitted the West Virginia Hydrogen Hub Working Coalition’s official application (full copy below) to the U.S. Department of Energy. This is the first (very important) step in the process to select winning hydrogen hubs funded by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
