Hyzon Motors and TC Energy have announced an agreement to collaborate on development, construction, operation, and ownership of hydrogen production facilities across North America.

The hydrogen production facilities will be used to meet hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle demand by focusing on low-to-negative carbon intensity hydrogen from renewable natural gas, biogas and other sustainable sources.

The facilities will be located close to demand, supporting Hyzon back-to-base vehicle deployments.

Under the agreement, the companies will evaluate sites across multiple states and provinces to develop hydrogen production facilities with the goal of hydrogen delivery to fuel heavy duty vehicles.

The hubs will be prioritised near existing and potential customer demand with a goal to produce up to 20 tonnes of hydrogen per hub per day.

TC Energy will operate the hubs, supply the power and gas commodities, and provide asset development, management services, and power and gas sales marketing.
