In April, DOE issued a condition commitment to the ACES Delta project and the loan closed on June 3. “The Advanced Clean Energy Storage team, with its world-class industry partners, is excited to secure this loan by DOE to develop the first phase of the world’s largest renewable hydrogen energy hub,” said Michael Ducker, senior vice president of hydrogen infrastructure for Mitsubishi Power Americas and president of ACES I. “This step creates a path to accelerate the long-term hydrogen market and clean energy landscape to expand decarbonization across the United States.”{/mprestriction}
