ABB collaborates with Green Hydrogen International on the Hydrogen City project in Texas, set to produce 280,000 tons of green hydrogen per year.
Hydrogen to be used to produce one million tons of green ammonia annually to serve global export demand.
Facility will be powered by behind-the-meter solar and onshore wind energy, allowing for IRA and RFNBO compliant production.
The project will utilize underground salt cavern storage, which is seen as an efficient way to store large volumes of hydrogen onshore1. The planned storage of up to 24,000 tons of green hydrogen will help balance out the intermittency of the renewable energy sources powering the operation and allow for a lower levelized cost of hydrogen.
A 120-kilometer pipeline to the nearby Corpus Christi energy port, approximately 300 kilometers southwest of Houston, will transport the green hydrogen to an ammonia production facility for conversion and subsequent global export to serve demand in Europe and Asia
GHI is honored to be partnering with ABB on our Hydrogen City project,” says Brian Maxwell, CEO of GHI.
Their top-notch expertise in power systems architecture, automation, electrical and digital systems provides enormous advantages for this complex project and supports our goal of producing the lowest-cost green hydrogen in South Texas.
