ABB and Charbone Hydrogen Corp, a green hydrogen production company based in Montreal, Canada, have joined forces to develop up to 15 modular green hydrogen production facilities across North America. This collaboration aims to provide a clean fuel source for existing hydrogen users and heavy industrial processes, moving away from the use of 'grey hydrogen.' ABB will support Charbone in various aspects, including designing electrical substations for interconnection, standardizing engineering for efficiency, and possibly handling automation and electrification. The first project at the Sorel-Tracy facility near Montreal will soon connect to the Hydro-Québec grid, using hydro electricity for electrolysis and setting a blueprint for future sites. With plans to start operations quickly, Charbone aims to support industry decarbonisation. The global hydrogen demand is on the rise, with a focus on low-emissions production. This partnership signifies a positive step towards meeting the demand for sustainable hydrogen production and reducing carbon emissions in the North American market.
