The NYSERDA Clean Hydrogen Innovation program focuses on accelerating innovative solutions in clean hydrogen to decarbonize hard-to-electrify sectors and to support the transition to a resilient, zero-emission electric grid. Through this program, NYSERDA has up to $11.5 million in co-funding for clean hydrogen research, development, and demonstration projects.
Funding in this solicitation focuses on Clean Hydrogen Innovation in the following technical challenge areas:
- Challenge 1. Hydrogen applications to decarbonize industrial process heat
- Challenge 2. Mitigation of nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions from hydrogen combustion
- Challenge 3. Hydrogen storage technologies for bulk storage and limited footprint areas
- Challenge 4. Hydrogen-based generation systems for microgrids and grid support services
- Challenge 5. Hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles.
Two categories of projects will be considered for funding based on technology readiness levels (TRLs):
- Category A: Product Development (TRL 4-6)
- Category B: Pilot & Demonstration Projects (TRL 7-9)
