Nikola, a provider of zero-emission transportation and energy source and infrastructure solutions, and KeyState Natural Gas Synthesis, a hydrogen and blank chemicals production facility under development, are running in combination to create Pennsylvania’s first low-carbon hydrogen production price chain. which includes an integration of advertising carbon capture and storage. The task aims to constitute the transition to transport, chemicals and low-emission manufacturing. The parties are seeking a definitive agreement to expand the hydrogen source of Nikola’s zero-emission fuel mobile electric cars. )
“Nikola’s participation in the task will allow us to secure sufficient volumes of hydrogen and drive the adoption of zero-emission trucks by unlocking a new call for visitors and enabling key investments in downstream hydrogen refueling infrastructure in the Mid-Atlantic region,” Nikola said. President, Energy, Carey Mendes. ” This will be key to our sourcing strategy and help grow our large-scale refuelling network. In addition, clean, low-carbon hydrogen will allow us to maximize price under the Inflation Reduction Act and long-term downstream incentive systems for fuel and distribution. “
KeyState plans to supply Nikola with up to one hundred consistent tons per day of low-carbon hydrogen, which can force up to 2500 Nikola Tre FCEVs and move more than 51,000,000 gallons of fossil diesel fuel based on the year consumed. , the more than 7,000-acre KeyState site is expected to have the ability to purchase CO2 related to hydrogen production and the source’s strategic success in and for the mid-Atlantic high-end FCEV markets. KeyState will also produce ammonia and urea for the trade and transportation markets, in addition to Nikola’s hydrogen mobility demand.
KeyState’s allocation is expected to integrate carbon capture from high-efficiency autothermal reform with on-site geological carbon sequestration and an herb-based fuel feedstock from a closed on-site system, while generating carbon-free electricity. A true carbon circle will be closed, with the separation of 99% of the carbon from the hydrogen contained in the methane and the return of this CO2 to a deep underground geological reservoir on site.
In addition to executing the hydrogen source agreement, the parties jointly postulate to expand a liquefaction solution for the economical and effective distribution of hydrogen from the allocation to Nikola’s planned refueling network in expansion. The parties also plan an application as the DOE Hydrogen Hub program’s lead allocation that represents the entire hydrogen ecosystem from production to demand.
