Cummins is investing in large-scale PEM electrolyzer manufacturing and testing for Accelera by Cummins, its zero-emissions technology brand, at its Fridley, MN, U.S. plant. This hydrogen production technology enables customers to decarbonize hard-to-abate applications and sectors of the economy. Driving cost-effective domestic manufacturing of electrolyzers at commercial scale is required to develop a viable hydrogen economy and accelerate the shift to zero.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) released applicant self-disclosed information for 22 projects across 17 states that voluntarily shared with DOE that they received a total of nearly $1 billion in allocations from the Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Credit (48C). Nine of the self-disclosed projects indicated they are located in 48C energy communities – communities with closed coal mines or coal plants—showcasing the Biden Administration’s commitment to investing in America’s energy communities.
