Canadian energy company AltaGas detailed its plans for a green hydrogen production and storage facility at the site of a former aluminum smelter in Washington state.
“If brought to full fruition, the AltaGas Ltd. project could cost $850 million to $1 billion and provide hundreds of living wage jobs in Whatcom County during its construction phase,” The Bellingham Herald reported, citing a company official.
AltaGas was selected to receive funds as part of the $1bn DOE grant for a hub in the Pacific Northwest.
The facility would produce 100 metric tons of hydrogen per day from wind and solar energy, the paper reported.
