Alberta to Fund Hydrogen Projects

Alberta’s Hydrogen Centre of Excellence, funded through the Government of Alberta and led by Alberta Innovates, a research institute in Calgary, is seeking project proposals focused on hydrogen production, storage, transmission, end use, increased competitiveness, and economic diversification.

The centre will invest C$20 million in funding to support the successful hydrogen projects over 24 months. This funding comes from the Alberta government’s investment of $50 million to launch the Hydrogen Centre of Excellence in April 2022. Up to $2 million is available per project.

The Alberta Advancing Hydrogen – Competition 1 program is now accepting applications. Information on how to apply is available on the Hydrogen Centre of Excellence website. Initial intake submissions are due Sept. 5, with full proposals of approved projects due Nov. 18.
