Just announced! Today, the Alliance for Renewable Clean Hydrogen Energy Systems (ARCHES H2) and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) officially announced the signing of a landmark $12.6 billion agreement, including up to $1.2 billion from the DOE and $11.4 billion in public and private matching funds, to build and expand clean energy infrastructure across California. ARCHES is the first of the seven H2Hubs to officially sign their agreement with the DOE. This transformative investment, which will directly reduce California’s reliance on fossil fuels, marks a major step forward in the state’s efforts to achieve a carbon-neutral economy by 2045. The overall investment, starting with $30 million for the first tranche of funding out of the total project federal cost share of up to $1.2 billion, is projected to create over 220,000 well-paying jobs. At full build out, it is estimated that ARCHES DOE projects will result in $2.95 billion per year in decreased healthcare costs due to improved air quality, particularly along transportation corridors. The future continues to happen here in California first! https://lnkd.in/gDP3vXJY
