GameChange Solar (GCS) has signed a sole source agreement to supply its American-made Genius Tracker™ solar trackers, a key component to be paired with solar panels for hydrogen complexes developer by Clean Energy Holdings.
Construction manager Bair Energy with Alliance Partner Coast2Coast (C2C) Logistics additionally signed a long-term alliance agreement to sole source and deliver GCS components for projects across the United States, starting with the CEH Clear Fork Green H2 complex located in TX, which is on baseline schedule to achieve commercial operations in 2025, according to a news release.
The BE/GCS Alliance agreement specifically agrees to utilize mobile green hydrogen fueling stations from an existing Alliance Partner that specializes in cryogenics and hydrogen fuel, coupled with American-manufactured Class 8 Nikola hydrogen fuel cell electric trucks to serve CEH H2 complexes and GCS customers with a step-up approach to integrate higher percentages of the transportation solutions through 2030.
The first anticipated purchase of 10 Nikola hydrogen electric fuel cell trucks is slated by CEH to be completed in 2024.
The first phase of the Clear Fork project consists of a 715 MW photovoltaic system that will be installed in north Texas. The location offers the potential to expand to a total of 4.2 GW of solar capacity and additional wind capacity for a multi-phased hydrogen complex to be completed by 2028. It is estimated that the complex will produce 128,000 kg per day of green hydrogen (H₂).
Genius Tracker™, a leading single-axis tracker and fixed tilt structures supplier in the U.S. market, will supply galvanized steel tubing and solar tracking technology, and will be paired with solar panels (from an existing Alliance partner) at the Clear Fork Green Hydrogen complex. GCS will partner with CEH in producing green hydrogen in the journey toward affordable, sustainable, and carbon-neutral energy to ensure U.S. energy security and resiliency in the energy transformation.
