The Hydrogen Centre of Excellence, funded through the Government of Alberta and led by Alberta Innovates, is seeking project proposals focused on hydrogen production, storage, transmission, end use, increased competitiveness and economic diversification. This will continue to position the province as a major global supplier of clean energy exports.
The centre will invest $20 million in funding to support the successful hydrogen projects over 24 months. This funding comes from the Alberta government’s investment of $50 million to launch the Hydrogen Centre of Excellence in April 2022. Up to $2 million is available per project.
The Hydrogen Centre of Excellence supports research, development and demonstration that helps companies and entrepreneurs that are building hydrogen technologies. It brings together industry, researchers and small businesses from across the province to advance early stage technologies towards readiness for a global marketplace.
The centre is operated by Alberta Innovates, which has a proven record of accelerating Alberta-made technologies. Alberta Innovates is integrating the centre into Alberta’s existing innovation support systems to deliver testing, demonstration, piloting and validation capabilities needed for a hydrogen economy in Alberta.
