Charbone Hydrogen Corporation and ABB have announced a collaboration to develop green hydrogen production facilities in North America, with a focus on a flagship project in Québec, Canada. The Memorandum of Understanding outlines the joint development of up to 15 facilities over the next five years. The Sorel-Tracy facility, to be connected to the Hydro-Québec grid by Q2 2025, will use hydroelectricity to power two electrolysers, initially aiming to produce 400kg of hydrogen. Future projects may follow a similar scale. Additionally, a production facility will be established in the greater Detroit area, a key manufacturing hub. ABB will lead the design, engineering, and supply of electrical substations for interconnection, while also supporting standardisation of engineering for increased efficiency and reliability. The company may also serve as the main contractor for automation, electrification, and telecom depending on project needs. Charbone aims to accelerate the decarbonisation of industry through fast project implementation and modular production approaches.
