Mitsubishi is involved in the development of the Advanced Clean Energy Storage hub in Delta, Utah, which has received a $504.4m loan guarantee from the Department of Energy. The project is designed to convert over 220 MW of renewable energy to 100 metric tonnes per day of green hydrogen. ACES Delta has further plans to deploy hydrogen hubs across the US, according to its website.
Last year the US unit of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries invested in clean hydrogen production startup Electric Hydrogen.
