The US Department of Energy has announced $20m in funding to demonstrate technology that will produce clean hydrogen energy from nuclear power.
The DOE said the project will allow clean hydrogen – also known as green hydrogen – to serve as a source for zero-carbon electricity and represent an important economic product for nuclear plants beyond electricity.
The project will produce clean hydrogen from nuclear power at the three-unit Palo Verde nuclear power station owned and operated by Arizona Public Service Company in Phoenix, Arizona.
