Linde is investing more than $2 billion to build, own and operate an integrated clean hydrogen and atmospheric gases facility in Alberta, Canada.

Linde has signed a long-term agreement for the supply of clean hydrogen to Dow’s Fort Saskatchewan Path2Zero Project.

Linde’s new on-site complex will use autothermal reforming, combined with Linde’s proprietary HISORP® carbon capture technology, to produce clean hydrogen and will also recover hydrogen contained in off-gases from Dow’s ethylene cracker.

In the first phase, Linde will supply the clean hydrogen, nitrogen and other services to support Dow’s net-zero emissions integrated ethylene cracker and derivatives site.

Linde’s new facility will also supply clean hydrogen to existing and new industrial customers seeking to decarbonize their operations. In total, Linde’s complex will capture carbon dioxide emissions for sequestration in excess of 2 million metric tons each year.

Completion is scheduled for 2028.
