Province announces $20 million for new hydrogen projects
The province says it has set aside $20 million over two years for the development of new projects to produce hydrogen.
The government says in a news release its Hydrogen Centre of Excellence is looking for proposals that focus on “production, storage, transmission, end-use, increased competitiveness and economic diversification.”
Up to $2 million is available per project.
“Hydrogen is the next great opportunity in Alberta’s energy sector.

We’re proud to be helping drive the clean hydrogen industry forward, with Alberta ingenuity leading the way,” says Dale Nally, Associate Minister of Natural Gas and Electricity in a release from the province.
