Topsoe, a Danish energy company, is set to construct a $400 million Electrolyzer facility in Chesterfield, Virginia, to produce green hydrogen from renewable sources like solar and wind power. This initiative is part of a move towards clean and carbon-neutral fuel production at an industrial scale to meet the increasing demand for clean hydrogen and its applications. Concurrently, the National Institute of Standards and Technology's Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) National Network initiated the Supply Chain Optimization and Intelligence Network (SCOIN) pilot program to bolster supply chain efforts nationwide. Topsoe's investment in American manufacturing coincided with the U.S. government's focus on attracting European investments in the country. Through collaborations with programs facilitated by the U.S. Department of Commerce and the MEP National Network, Topsoe quickly advanced its investment plans. By partnering with the Oklahoma Manufacturing Alliance and TMAC, the Texas MEP Center, Topsoe began scouting for suppliers across the U.S. Due to the bespoke nature of Topsoe's solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOEC) production, the MEP lead on the project, Mr. Edmondson, initiated a comprehensive nationwide scouting process. This process identified 300 potential suppliers from 38 states, aligning capabilities and certifications with Topsoe's requirements. Topsoe then selected 35 companies from 14 states to advance to the request for quotation (RFQ) stage, emphasizing the critical role of the MEP National Network in vetting and connecting suppliers. The ongoing collaboration between Topsoe and the MEP National Network showcases the importance of public-private partnerships in driving green energy projects and building resilient supply chains. By bridging gaps in capabilities and fostering regional manufacturing ecosystems, this initiative highlights the potential for international companies to contribute to sustainable energy production in the United States.
