The project involves agreen hydrogen production facility in Fresno, California. The plant will produce 30 metric tons of liquid green hydrogen daily, serving customersfrom San Diego to Vancouver. The facility will use a new 300 MW zero-carbon solar farm to power 120 megawatts of Plug Power’s
state-of-the-art PEM electrolyzers, which split water into hydrogen and oxygen through an electro-chemical process.
When fully built, the network of plants in the U.S. will offer transportation fuel to customers that is price-competitive with diesel.
Plug Power’s investment in green hydrogen production will contribute to decarbonizing light-duty vehicles, freight-transportation, and logistics operations, and supports California’s leading role in developing hydrogen as a zero-emission fuel.
The project includes construction of a new tertiary wastewater treatment plant in the city of Mendota that will provide recycled water for the people of Mendota and supply the full needs of the plant.
Pending environmental and construction permitting approvals, the plant will break ground in early 2023 and complete commissioning in early 2024.
