Apex, Plug Power sign 345 MW wind PPA to support US hydrogen production

Apex Clean Energy and Plug Power have announced a 345 MW wind power purchase agreement (PPA) and a development services agreement for a green hydrogen production facility located in the US.

The power purchased through the PPA will directly supply a new hydrogen production plant with 100% renewable power. The hydrogen plant, which is being co-developed by Apex and Plug Power, will be the first and largest wind-supplied hydrogen project in the United States and the largest onshore wind-powered project across the globe.

Once operational, the plant is anticipated to produce over 30 metric tons per day of clean liquid hydrogen, enough to fuel the equivalent of over 2,000 light commercial vehicles or over 1,000 heavy duty class 8 trucks.
