The Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Association (PNWH2) has appointed Chris Green as its first president to spearhead the establishment of a clean hydrogen ecosystem encompassing Washington, Oregon, and Montana. Green's extensive experience in legislative and economic development, particularly in clean energy, makes him a fitting leader for this initiative. PNWH2, part of the U.S. Department of Energy's Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs Program, is set to accelerate the development of hydrogen infrastructure to attract investments and promote quality jobs with a focus on social equity and environmental justice. The Association's collaboration with labor, Tribal Nations, and public and private sectors underscores its dedication to achieving sustainable and economically viable clean hydrogen production. The support from influential figures like U.S. Senators Patty Murray and Jeff Merkley highlights the importance of PNWH2's mission in advancing the green hydrogen economy and reducing emissions. Additionally, endorsements from industry leaders such as April Sims from Washington State Labor Council and George Bailey from St. Regis Solar Hydrogen affirm the transformative potential of PNWH2's initiatives in creating quality jobs and driving community development. PNWH2's strategic planning and partnerships with Department of Energy and various stakeholders position it as a national model for clean hydrogen production and pave the way for a commercially viable ecosystem in the Pacific Northwest.
