“According to the company, placing the electrolyzer at the Niagara Falls plant allows the project to take advantage of nearby hydropower and a crucial industrial location. This, in turn, results in a green hydrogen plant that is both energy-efficient and important to the region.”
”It uses electricity, sourced from clean hydropower, to split water into hydrogen and oxygen, in an electrochemical reaction made possible by its proton exchange membrane. This allows it to operate without producing emissions.”
“McMenamin emphasized the project’s broader significance. He noted that it not only contributes to local job creation but also reinforces New York’s position at the forefront of the clean energy transition. It is expected to drive both economic growth and environmental progress in the region.”
