Description
The potential buildout of hydrogen production capabilities at TransAlta’s 320 MW Tent Mountain pumped hydro storage project in Alberta, Canada.
In March 2023, TransAlta said it could co-locate hydrogen production with select wind and hydroelectric facilities.
A 50% stake acquisition in the Tent Mountain project includes the intellectual property associated with a 100 MW offsite green hydrogen electrolyzer and a 100 MW offsite wind development project.
FID on Tent Mountain could be reached sometime in 2025.
Development work will take three to four years and earliest construction could begin in 2026.
