The City of Prince George will receive $150,000 in federal funding to help develop a regional hydrogen hub for the area.
"This work will ensure that Northern B.C. can capitalize on the exciting hydrogen potential in the region, attract advanced industries and establish a network of hydrogen producers, consumers, and infrastructure," states a press release from the federal government issued Wednesday. "This will accelerate the adoption of hydrogen as a clean and efficient energy source, reinforcing British Columbia's role as a leader in sustainable development.
The funding will help the City of Prince George identify local hydrogen assets, attract investment for low-carbon initiatives and support regional research and community engagement. Prince George is strategically positioned to take advantage of the expanding hydrogen economy due to its regional transportation advantages, including proximity to major highways, rail transport, and an international airport, states the release. The hub will extend along Highway 16 to Prince Rupert, presenting an opportunity to create jobs and increase business revenues through new investments in the region.
"The Northern B.C. hydrogen hub development is a transformative initiative poised to link regional hydrogen demand and supply, driving economic growth through job creation in construction, operations, and maintenance of hydrogen facilities and infrastructure," said Mayor Simon Yu in a press release from the federal government.
