Biden and U.S. Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm on Friday announced details of the hydrogen hubs, which are expected to spur more than $40 billion in private investment and create tens of thousands of jobs, bringing the total public and private investment to nearly $50 billion, officials said.
The Midwest Alliance for Clean Hydrogen, or MachH2, will create the regional hub and oversee the construction of a new hydrogen hub at the American Center for Mobility in Ypsilanti, where a separate hydrogen hub, announced last summer, is already in development. It will oversee the expansion of a hydrogen production and refueling center at the Flint-area Mass Transportation Authority. MachH2 also will work with the Michigan Infrastructure Office to build a hydrogen “truck stop of the future” in Detroit.
