Description
Southern California Gas’ (SoCalGas) development of a pipeline to connect green hydrogen production facilities and offtakers in the heavy industrial, power generation and transportation sectors in the Los Angeles Basin.
The pipeline system is aimed at supporting the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power’s (LAWP) efforts to transition to clean hydrogen as a source of zero carbon firm power and develop a market for hydrogen in the industrial and heavy transportation sectors. As contemplated, the Angeles Link would deliver green hydrogen in an amount equivalent to almost 25 percent of the natural gas SoCalGas delivers today. Building the system to provide a clean alternative fuel could, over time and combined with other future clean energy projects, reduce natural gas demand served by the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility, facilitating its ultimate retirement while continuing to provide reliable and affordable energy to the region.
