California has long been at the forefront of the clean energy transition – and hydrogen is no exception. With the goal of 200 hydrogen refueling stations by 2025, the #1 fuel cell market in the U.S. , and numerous ongoing hydrogen production and research projects, California is well equipped to lead the hydrogen market in the U.S.

The 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) allocated $8 billion dollars for the development of at least four regional clean hydrogen hubs as part of the Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs Program. California has formally announced its intent to seek one of these hydrogen hubs. California is establishing a public-private hydrogen hub consortium to apply for federal hubs opportunity, as well as to accelerate the adoption and production of clean hydrogen technology in the state. This partnership will include key regional leaders, academic institutions, private sector stakeholders, and more.

Please note that the hydrogen hubs project is evolving and ongoing. Check this page for updates and announcements as the project develops.
