Learn how the U.S. clean hydrogen market can grow rapidly with incentives, policies, and innovations. See the three phases of commercial liftoff and the challenges and opportunities for each phase.
Progress across near-term and longer-term opportunities could create commercial liftoff between now and 2030 as project finance mechanisms become de-risked, a robust ecosystem of enabling transport and storage infrastructure matures, state and federal regulatory requirements promote lower-GHG alternatives, and capital markets become comfortable ...
DOE publishes reports to accelerate clean energy technologies from the lab to market by 2050. The reports synthesize facts, pathways, challenges and solutions for each technology area, such as advanced nuclear, carbon management, clean hydrogen, etc.
DOE’s Pathways to Commercial Liftoff reports provide public and private sector capital allocators with a perspective as to how and when various technologies could reach full-scale commercial adoption.
Mar 21, 2023 · The Department of Energy (DOE) launched a new initiative to strengthen public-private partnerships and accelerate the commercialization of clean hydrogen, advanced nuclear, and long duration energy storage technologies. The reports provide insights on the market potential, challenges, and investment needs for each technology to reach full-scale deployment by 2030.
Without sustained long-term offtake or merchant markets, domestic market acceleration could be slowed. A Production: SMR with CCS and electrolysis from clean energy have highest potential for low-cost clean hydrogen supply, but cost-downs and scale-up are needed.
