The Green Hydrogen Coalition (GHC) launched its HyBuild™ North America initiative in 2020 to accelerate the development of scaled green hydrogen hubs. HyBuild North America’s strategic approach is based on aggregating multi-sectoral demand for green hydrogen (GH2) in targeted locations. This enables scaled GH2 production facilities and needed shared transport and storage infrastructure to be designed and developed together from the beginning. The goal: achieve mass-scale supply certainty and low delivered cost (<$2/kg delivered). By solving for this goal, the GHC believes that it can accelerate more rapid fuel switching away from fossil fuels towards GH2 and its derivative products. In so doing, we can accelerate the realization of a clean and just energy transition.

To date, the HyBuild North America initiative has architected two regional hubs at scale, focused on Southern California “HyBuild Los Angeles” and the Carolinas “HyBuild Carolinas”. Key findings from both regional hub initiatives indicate that scaled GH2 hubs are achievable, delivering mass-scale renewable hydrogen at <$2/kg at the pipeline.

The GHC is launching its next HyBuild North America Initiative, Contracts Workstream, to help support clean and green hydrogen market liftoff nationally. Jointly led by Sheppard Mullin, a national clean energy transactional law firm, the GHC Contracts Workstream will engage with potential at-scale GH2 buyers to identify issues and key risks associated with GH2 procurement.

Once use cases of significance are identified, a comprehensive framework will be developed to provide a robust foundation for hydrogen offtake, thereby serving to mitigate many of the risks associated with asset development.

The webinar will cover an array of real-world commercial case studies, shedding light on practical applications. It will also delve into recent industry developments and announcements. Most importantly, it will offer an opportunity for your organization to actively participate in an endeavor that can play a pivotal role in driving the advancement of the GH2 economy.
