ABB and Charbone Hydrogen have joined forces to accelerate the development of green hydrogen production facilities in North America. The agreement aims to establish up to 15 modular and scalable green hydrogen plants over the next five years, catering to industries like steelmaking that currently rely on grey hydrogen. ABB will serve as the primary supplier of electrical substations for interconnecting these facilities, with future possibilities for automation solutions. The partnership will initially focus on projects in Canada and the U.S., starting with Charbone's flagship site in Sorel-Tracy, Quebec, which will be operational by 2025 using hydro electricity. This collaboration not only promotes the use of green hydrogen but also aligns with Québec's ambitious goal to significantly reduce petroleum consumption and greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. By leveraging ABB's expertise in electrification and automation, Charbone aims to drive the decarbonization of various industries by providing a cleaner energy alternative. The deployment of Extended Operator Workplace systems in the planned facilities signifies a commitment to enhance production efficiency and minimize downtime. With the global demand for low-emission hydrogen on the rise, the partnership between ABB and Charbone showcases a positive step towards a sustainable and resource-efficient future in the energy sector.
